    Nearly Half Of The Twitter Accounts Discussing ‘Reopening America’ May Be Bots
    CMU Researchers Say Sophisticated, Orchestrated Bot Campaigns Aim To Sow Divide

    To analyze bot activity around the pandemic, CMU researchers since January have collected more than 200 million tweets discussing coronavirus or COVID-19. Of the top 50 influential retweeters, 82% are bots, they found. Of the top 1,000 retweeters, 62% are bots.

    The monitoring of tweets is ongoing and collections from Facebook, Reddit and YouTube have been added to the research.

    "We're seeing up to two times as much bot activity as we'd predicted based on previous natural disasters, crises and elections," said Kathleen Carley, a professor in the School of Computer Science’s Institute for Software Research and director of the Center for Computational Analysis of Social and Organizational Systems (CASOS) and Center for Informed Democracy & Social - Cybersecurity (IDeaS.)

    Interesting to see that you now support Russian propaganda to divide America.

    Keep up the good work, Comrade.

    I support real science... and logical thoughts.
    russian bots are not 80 percent (or whatever the implied number is) of the re-open america movement.

    That is absolute horseshit.

    its garbage...

    they have a few ideas about how to identify a bot... then then they go crazy with guesses.

    Its like you are and your team.
    a recent AI study says there are only 3 lefties here with 50 active accounts.
    do you believe the study?

    are you all Russian bots?

    This is coming from a guy who routinely cites the WHO. gwb-trading is not a patriotic American.
