🚀 First study on multimodal AI-generated content (AIGC) on social media! TLDR: AI-generated images are 10× more prevalent than AI-generated text! Just 3% of text spreaders and 10% of image spreaders drive 80% of AIGC diffusion, with premium & bot accounts playing a key role🤖📢

So satisfying to have some evidence that Elon Musk is wildly promoting himself on X.

Researchers made 120 sock puppet accounts to see whose content is getting pushed on users. #FAccT2025
