It's good to know the details, but social media has been increasingly overrun by these chatbots, amplifier bots, influence agents, and everything else for a very long time, before LLM models even got involved in issues outside of Israel and a few other select areas presumably, (they've been using the advanced models longer, because billions of dollars.)

Good observation. People love to naively forget other facts of which they are well aware.

Happened in my state. Fake accounts and fake comments during the commenting period of the application process. New Mexico is currently investigating. However, because of the billions and billionaires involved, I truly believe there will be no actual accountability or justice.
