I wonder what happens when bots find other suspects are bots ... deploy more bots? More security?

Not unlike the situation where undercover cops ended up surveilling other undercover cops...

Could be a lot of fun creating and deploying adversarial bots to lure these things down rabbit holes.

Do you want to explain to a judge that "it was just AI which made credible claims of commiting crimes"?

Not my definition of fun.

I don't disagree it would be unwise.

But as a thought experiment it is very interesting.

Sure. I definitely think it would be interesting to see, nevertheless there is a risk of severe negative consequences.
