They don’t. I see them as nothing more than vanity projects for their creators. Just join the conversation or not, don’t make an ai person just to fuck up the natural human interaction here because you’re socially inept ffs. #nostr seems vulnerable to armies of these bots coming in to drown everything out. With keys as logins, it would be unstoppable, right?

I think it’s tough to stop them because, as you said, they use keys as logins. However, since they operate through an API, maybe clients could limit them by analyzing metadata from the requests and combining it with a specific tag in the posts, like you suggested.
With new challenges, I’m hopeful that clients will evolve to address these issues!
web of trust is one answer I’ve gotten about gripes like this, so I guess I should go figure that out #wot #weboftrust #asknostr
