Figure 1

Overestimation of bot prevalence. These violin plots show the distributions of bot prevalence estimates by participants before and after exposure to bots impersonating humans; the difference is significant (\(p<0.001\)). The black dots indicate the mean values; the box plots show the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentiles. We also show the estimates of inauthentic and spam accounts by Twitter and Elon Musk together with the estimated prevalence of automated accounts by Varol et al.40. See the main text for details.
