Bots gathered around famous people doesn't really affect how people use it as such. So yes, it's still a real place as much as the next Internet site.If what Musk has revealed (recent twitter post) is Twitter even a real place. If 1/2 of a certain government officials followers are deemed bots than what is Twitter really? IF as im only speculating they could be in big legal trouble. By creating fake bots you are inflating your real value to stockholders and advertisers etc
It might affect the ego of Musk that he's lumped in politicians with made up followers, but for people who post about science fiction books, possums in funny hats, micro fiction, wikipedia moderation issues, or portrait photography those bots are a non-issue and far less destructive than bigoted trolls. Just like the rest of Internet.
