When Elon Musk took over Twitter, he said getting rid of spam bots was a priority. As part of this war on bots, Musk says you'll soon have to pay to DM accounts who don't follow you. Last year, Elon Musk promised "to defeat the spam bots or die trying." The Wall Street Journal reported this week that the level of bot activity on Twitter is about the same as before Musk took over. "As I've said many times, it is increasingly difficult to distinguish between AI bots," Musk added.

This all gets in the way of Yaccarino's ambition of making Twitter a real-time information source. If Twitter's future is to be a global town square that trades in accurate, real-time information between real-world people, the bots need to go for good — and fast.
