We should rebrand bots, maybe to something like text apps or conversation apps or something like this bots have a bad rep and don’t really represent what these LLM driven apps are.
Maybe I'm just blinded by experience but I don't have an issue distinguishing bad and good bots in common usage. I play Old School Runescape which is plagued with bots, but there's never confusion because linguistic markers naturally signal what is meant. The opposite has also been true in my experience. Maybe I'm just too wary of another stint on the euphemism treadmill.
