Bot

The slang term “bot” refers to a software program or script that can perform automated tasks on the internet.

Bots are commonly used to automate repetitive actions, such as posting content on social media platforms or sending automated responses. They can also be used maliciously for activities like spamming or generating fake online interactions.

Example 1: “I programmed a bot to automatically like and comment on all of my Instagram posts.”
Example 2: “The website got flooded with spam comments from bots.”
