Fantastic Bots and Where To Find Them
summary
A rapid survey names specific bots, shows generated poetry and images like mothgenerator and gradient wheels, demos image processors (WordPadBot, datam0sher, slitscanner) and corpus machines such as every word, and notes collective‑unconscious bots that rephrase tweeted cat lines. It states concrete etiquette: reply only to direct mentions or narrow heuristics (e.g. animated GIFs or tweets containing “butt”), warns that models reproduce toxic inputs (Tay example), and recommends building your own with cheap bots done quick.
