I'm curious to see when spam bots will eventually use sophisticated language models in order to generate text, aimed to combat a search engine's own machine learning algorithms which detect spam. Barring the actual scenario where Google's resources are larger and Google's employees more intelligent than spammers, it would be interesting to see spam bots generate more and more intelligent content in a war of the AI.
