A “Social Bot” is a type of software that autonomously operates over the Internet[4] and interacts with humans in a manner that mimics human behavior. These bots are typically used on médias sociaux[1] platforms and can perform various tasks, such as publicité[2] products, garnering political support, or engaging with users for client[3] service purposes. However, they can also be used for harmful activities like phishing for personal information, manipulating public opinion, or spamming[5] users. Detection and regulation of social bots have become crucial due to their ability to influence society at large, including areas like public opinion and stock markets. Ethical considerations are also important, as the use of these bots can raise issues related to transparency and user data control.
