The semiautomated social network is coming / LinkedIn announced last week it’s using AI to help write posts for users to chat about. Snap has created its own chatbot, and Meta is working on AI ‘personas.’ It seems future social networks will be increasingly augmented by AI
@ecksmc Can't say I'm surprised. More posts, more traffic, more potential value to show advertisers and prospective advertisers.
In the end, a play to drive higher revenue by artificially increasing the number of posts and time people spend on the relevant platform.
Ultimately, I'm guessing it'll mostly be more vacuous crapping on within the platform and, potentially, more divisive content to encourage anger as 'engagement'.
