Elon Musk Raises Scam Alert on BOB-Linked Twitter Bot

• ‘Explain This Bob’ account had over 400,000 followers.
• Twitter has not acted against the Bob Token account.

Following Elon Musk’s accusation of being a “scam crypto account,” the Twitter account of the widely-known meme coin-associated AI bot “Explain This Bob” has been suspended. On June 18, Elon Musk took to Twitter to accuse the account of being a scam, and shortly after his tweet, the bot’s account suspended. 

Utilizing Open AI‘s GPT-4 model, ExplainThisBob, an AI-powered bot designed to simplify complex tweets by breaking them down into more easily understandable language. When tagged in a tweet, it would provide an ‘explanation’ of that particular tweet. Furthermore, the project had a connection to the Bob Token (BOB), an ERC-20 memecoin that released in April 2023. 

By suspending the account, Musk‘s previous favorable impression of the bot has taken a complete turn, contradicting his earlier tweet on April 20 where he openly declared “I love Bob” in response to one of its tweets. This specific tweet is also prominently featured on the project’s website.

Despite the suspension of the ExplainThisBob account, Twitter has not implemented any measures against the Bob Token account. Reports indicate that BOB’s current price stands at $0.00001908, accompanied by a 24-hour trading volume of $8,801,002. Over the past 24 hours, BOB has witnessed an decrease of 8.5%.
