half-life of ai influencers why do social ai agents lose their appeal so quickly? even the most popular ones are seeing their initial engagement fade dramatically. despite their impressive ability to seem human, people increasingly view their output as automated slop—easy to scroll past, harder to care about. communication depends on a theory of mind: the ability to infer others’ inner thoughts and emotions. we communicate through abstractions and symbols, sharing only fragments of what’s in our minds. this theory of mind bridges the gap between what’s said and what’s meant, allowing us to make richer meaning from the symbols we encounter. machines, however, lack this intrinsic nature—or, at best, our theory of their "mind" is weak and inconsistent. humans are fundamentally wired for connection. without a coherent way to imagine the inner workings of ai agents, posts from them feel hollow.

Maybe my posts are AI slop then cause I get about 1/100th of the interactions they get. Fr though, AIs are better at appraisal, and that’s what gets their foot in the door 🦶🏽🚪

for sure, the novelty kicks them off and i think spinning up an agent continues to be a powerful way to break through attention as there are lots of contexts to build for.
