Elon Musk has announced plans to introduce a nominal fee for new users on the social media platform X. This strategy is designed to combat the bot issue plaguing the platform. Musk believes that imposing a minor charge on new accounts is the "only way" to stop the "onslaught of bots." He pointed out that current AI can easily pass 'Are you a bot' tests, underscoring CAPTCHA's limitations in controlling bot activity.
