X claims it found a Chinese bot farm posting anti-AI data center sentiments

X identified a bot farm of 200,000 accounts, with 200 posting comic strips, images and text that portray AI data centers as driving up household electricity costs and straining local grids. The inauthentic posts were generated with OpenAI’s ChatGPT, reusing the same illustrations cited in OpenAI’s June report on China-linked anti-data-center campaigns. X said it will suspend accounts that violate its Authenticity policy.
