Do you remember the last time you posted something important on social media and didn’t get any response or you were criticized? Now you can avoid that with a new “social network” full of stupid ai chatbots that (you choose!) will debate you, attack you, or even say nice things if you want.
Is called ai-social-network%2Fid6670229993″>SocialAIAnd the first thing it invites you to do is choose the followers you want, such as “followers,” “nerds,” “skeptics,” “visionaries,” and “ideators.” Then, a host of chatbots on those topics fill out the replies to your posts, not unlike the bots and promoters you’ll already find on Elon Musk’s social network, but now under your control.
Does that mean it's better? Well, check it out:
Well, if you're looking to emulate unexpected responses on social media, you're doing a great job here.
Above, the “interesting social dynamic” of relaxing in a hot tub five feet away from other colleagues.
I am glad that Dr. Eloise Hartmann respects the opinions.
Surprisingly, the bots actually seem to have some concrete feelings about the PS5 Pro (I'm guessing a $699 price tag will have that effect).
As alx1231 points outThe ai threads it offers are no worse than the less interesting stuff the algorithm sometimes serves up in Threads or x. The difference is that no matter how hard we tried, we couldn't get the chatbots to be this mean to us!
The bots always respond in the same basic format, just a few short responses or jokes, and even when we decided to max out the trolling and sarcasm, we didn't see any personal attacks.
When we tried to create a positive echo chamber, they had no problem calling hot dogs the “brilliant sandwiches of the world” or including out-of-place graphic emojis.
And yes, let's look at the science of peanut butter and jelly and its impact on cognition and mood!
So you get the idea. If you've used early chatbots, these kinds of responses will be familiar to you, and this isn't even the first social media app to experimentally replace all humans with generative ai.
SocialAI seems like something of a joke, or perhaps a kind of meta-commentary on the concept of social media and cheap interaction, particularly after… Creator Michael Sayman helpfully explained“Now we can all know how Elon Musk feels after acquiring twitter for $44 billion, but without having to spend $44 billion.” He also says However, it is “designed to help people feel heard” and is apparently a way to help people avoid feeling isolated.
By the way, there is no edit button.
