Here's one bot that I like:

https://twitter.com/NYT_first_said

Basically, the bot tweets every time the New York Times publishes a word that has appeared in the Times for the first time.

For example, the most recent one was "freeballing" (no idea of the context).  It's not an ad.  It's not misinformation.  It's just a little side project that someone made that parses every edition of the NY Times and compares each word in it to a list of words that have appeared in the past, and if it's not in that list, will tweet out the new word.  My favorite from a few days ago was "doomscrolling", a nice portmanteau that describes a behavior a lot of us have engaged in, by going through social media looking for bad news.

Here's another bot:
https://twitter.com/infinite_scream

Basically, the bot responds automatically when tagged in a tweet with an "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH".  That's basically all it does.  Again, it's not an ad.  It's not misinformation.
