Good question!

The guesses and rumours that you have got as replies makes me lean towards "apparently no one knows".

And because it's slop machines (also referred to as "AI", there is always a high probability of some sort of scam.

pretty much my take as well. I haven’t seen any actual information from a primary source, just lots of hearsay and “what we think happened” analyst shit (e.g. that analyst group in the twitter screenshot has names but no citation/links)

and doubly yep on the “everyone could just be lying” bit
