They should never have existed. They are an astroturfing and bot raiding bonanza. Maybe news sites have finally figured out that there’s a reason why you need editorial control and don’t let Russian, or Chinese (or American for that matter)

There’s plenty of people who use good toupees/wigs and are open about it (or went bald and saved their hair with mystery medicine). I’m sure if models can now produce amazing fiction it wouldn’t take more than few minutes and Claude su
