Using bots to drive up the traffic of your site is stupidly common, has been a thing even before LLMs, and does not require driving up traffic to every site on the internet. 🤦‍♂️

    Very true but if you look at the top 10 sites online I bet they're all propping up their traffic metrics with bots which means to some extent it becomes a moot point. Anecdotally in the real world I see the use of AI very prevalent which lends to the fact that it is widespread and universally adopted despite what the bubble here says.
