I use Twitter a lot. I'm bad at it. Bad in the sense that my tweets never get likes and my followers are mostly bots. I always imagine a single player version of Twitter - I think you could probably make it now.

Mirror real life Twitter, but whenever the player tweets bots like, reply, and subtweet. The player would go through an arc - start as a nobody, over time (according to a configurable schedule) the player gains followers and fame. By the end you're dunking on politicians and cancelling celebrities.

I think this is already possible, but expensive, with GPT-3. Hopefully it becomes better and cheaper in the future. If someone builds it - I'll play!
