Zuck brags that 80% of your friend list will be AI and you think Meta is trying to keep out the bots?
That is a good point.
It really depends if he's trying to control the narrative (in which case he will want to control the bots) or to just keep people engaged with his products (in which case he doesn't care).
I think it depends. It is more about pushing the desired information to the desired profiles.
Any narrative can be useful to push as long as it is the right type of person to be pushing it to.
I believe why so many Billie's have gone mask off is because they have had such tremendous success with the granular controls algorithms provide for propaganda, radicalisation and disinformation.
Meta almost certainly is trying to keep out bots, so that they can fill your feed with their bots instead.
