    Status update: it took only a few minutes for the backlash to happen.

    As users began to sniff out some of Meta’s AI accounts this week, the backlash grew, in part because of the way the AI accounts disingenuously described themselves as actual people with racial and sexual identities.

    Oh, now they have bots that are into all sorts of spicy stuff. Pretty much what I expected.
