    Influencers are making an extreme amount of money, and Meta doesn’t get a bite of that specific cake.

    Now they make their own influencers to funnel that money away from the people and into the company instead.

    If they succeed with making popular AI bots, they can control user buying behaviour and political views like no other. Because you are much more likely to follow a “person” you trust than an ad. (the reason why influencers are a success to begin with.)
