Update: Meta spokesperson Liz Sweeney confirmed to me that the bots are old, from 2023, part of an "early experiment." They're taking them down to address the issue of users not being able to block them. Full update in the story below:

Im seeing conspiracy theories about the Meta AI bots. A few points: these profiles date back to 2023 & haven’t posted since early 2024. They had low engagement before this week. And it seems possible they were kinda abandoned bc they flopped like other Meta AI bots!
