💯 It boils down to incentives. Just like we saw people here spinning up bots to farm for zaps on Gm posts. If there’s enough incentive to do it, people will. On platforms like X and others that have ad revenue sharing, people are just incentivized to post whatever will get them enough followers/likes/etc to get those payouts. Authenticity is an afterthought, or even thrown completely out the window.

yeah
I can make things happen haikuing bitcoin but it's not me then. I kinda sorta become a 'like' bot making content for other people but it's not mine or authentic.
art as a commodity is what Andy Warhol was mocking with pop art.
now people buy pop art, think it's cool and they are unaware that they are buying something that AW was laughing at when he made it. he was memeing. 🤙
