See the history of Reddit. It was manually curated sock puppets before bots were viable, and now that bots are viable, I strongly believe the bulk of comments and posts in the popular subreddits are bots (and many are run by reddit themselves).

One doesn't even need to use llms. I caught a bot which was cross-pollinating comments from youtube's comment section into reddit when that youtube video was shared on reddit.

How about a totally fake social media populated by llm bots and rake in VC moolah?
