Twitter's bot system is fundamentally broken right now.
If you look here you can see OpenAI being used en-masse across the platform all blue-ticked indicating that they will not be flagged as spam. And showing exactly what Musk said would not happen when he changed what blue-tick meant.
ChatGPT bots are one of the worse problem of Twitter, but I really don't get how the math can work for them. Between the blue tick and the OpenAI API costs, how can they make actually some profit with subpar-quality tweets that leech from big accounts and basically redescribe the original post? What am I missing?
