I've been goofing off on twitter during down time between contracts and it's truly amazing if you go to a political "discussion" how many blue check "verified" accounts that are AI. I'm sure it's not just regular bots because they've responded to some of my troll remarks to them with a decent level of acuity and context. Going to their feed it's dead obvious that they are AI bots though, because their only reason for existence on there is pure mayhem and misinformation. I don't think Musk was talking about getting rid of bots, he was just talking about getting rid of non-paying bots
