As you have posted it in the Instagram section i think you are concerned about massive auto - task bots of IG.
I don't think they will stay at all. You can see that few years ago there were lots of bots . Now ? hardly any.
No bots work for reddit and i guess it will be the same for IG too

well, I beg to differ, I'm building working bots now, for Reddit and ig, unfortunately, there have been some people making software with no efforts to hide activities on the site, people are using bots that have drivers and footprints exposed. This was a problem in the botting community for the last couple of years but now the problem has been fixed with MacrosEngine this tool solves the latest industry problems with bots, and the developer is a member here on BHW @Aymen

@tompots thanks for the mention and the trust
Bots will always have a future, but it won't be as easy to make bots since security is getting tighter! The issue is the ones making bots are usually newcomers to the coding world, that's why they tend to struggle a bit. An experienced coder will always find a way to achieve a task.
the issue is most of these bots are used by 1000s of users, you are bound to the vision of the developer of the bot when it comes to automation routines and bot tasks. A lot use custom bots and never face issues. You don't want spotlights on what you are automating to keep things under the radar to a minimum. Publicly sold bots are an issue because first the developer hardly pays attention to footprints and security vulnerabilities, and second, you find yourself doing the same things as everyone else's, thus making the social sites aware of these bots, because a certain task is being done over and over again on a loop, by thousands of accounts.
I might be biased but I think custom bots are the way to go.

Well said, I couldn't have said it better myself.

Yes. Bots have a future. They will become smarter and more complex, it will kill some of the competition as now it will require real skill to build them, but at the same time, it's not rocket science either.

AI is on the bright side in terms of innovation.
Bots will be indistinguishable from manual actions if they can perform tasks with peak accuracy. Hopefully, they'll also figure out a way to cover footprints.

As long as the websites exist, people will try to automate some kind of action and so bots will exist.
It will keep getting more and more complicated to create and manage them as algorithms are getting advanced but I'm sure expert coders have always found a way and they will find one in the future as well.

definitely false, my bot works fine with Reddit. Depends on how good you are as a developer.

I think they will. I don’t think anyway website has more automation protection than Sneaker websites and people still have bots for those. And yes I’d legit be happy as fuck if I could build a sneaker bot

Yes, the good old Nike Addit To card buy bots, I have made a few of those for clients. All private though.

As long as your automation simulates real human interaction and your not just spamming a bunch of actions you'll be fine. Many of the old growth techniques like f/uf, mother/child, sending dms, etc. All still work on every platform. But gone are the days of following 1,000s a day. Warm up your accounts, and make them look human or at least like a regular small business. And you will never have to worry about losing accounts.

Bots will be around for a long time. It is a game of cat and mouse, but where there is a will, there is always a way.

Nailed it ^^^^^
The more people that use the bot = greater chance of footprint being detected,
The more people that buy the bot = more incentive for developer to keep it from being detected/patched
kinda funny huh?
It's not cat mouse game because whatever human can do, bot can do too. Level of development is not under question mark.
It is equal to Dana White announcing UFC is monitoring illegal streamers and they know who they are.
You have to be really stupid to believe that illegal streaming can be stopped. Same applies for bots.
World is full of 'problems' seek it, maybe you solve some.
