“When is a bot a person?,” my colleague Kirsten asked after I learned that Polestar’s climate bot is more human than machine.

Polestar launched its “Truth Bot” on X (formerly Twitter) ahead of COP28, the UN climate conference overseen by an oil executive. The Truth Bot replies to misleading tweets about the climate crisis and electrification, citing research from the IPCC, IEA and Carbon Brief. Unsurprisingly, the account promotes the upsides of electric vehicles. What’d you expect from an EV maker?
