It means that you are a bot. For example like Reddit's automod or all the Star Wars or Lord of the Rings quote bots or also unit converter bots.

And it seems like the first people are already trying to misuse the label.

Do you have to do something special to truly make your account a bot? Like give it a function it can do as a bot? (I'm not trying to make this account a bot though)
