Honestly, the chicken/egg marketplace problem seems like something LLM would be good at solving. LLMs are fantastic for doing things like generating dummy customer data for testing. How much further of a step is it to not only generate realistic sock puppet accounts and then simulate some activity?

maybe assistant for some parts but id expect the founder to put some more care initially if they dont want to just fail
