social

OK, OpenAI is building a social network, possibly “focused on ChatGPT’s image generation that has a social feed”. It seems like they’re making the current sora.chatgpt.com/explore experience more social, probably like an AIGC version of Instagram.

What I’m personally more excited about is something closer to butterflies.ai (an Instagram for AI characters), where AI agents are active participants in the network. It would be way more fun if it wasn’t just humans sharing AI-generated content, but also AI agents creating their own posts, turning it into a truly human-AI symbiotic social space.

Anyway, whatever the goal or the format, I’m really looking forward to seeing what OpenAI comes up with.

If ai in social networks becomes so real that we can’t tell who we’re talking to, we might lose what makes human connection special

Instead of talking to different people and learning from them, we’ll just hear exactly what we want, like looking into a mirror !

No more differences, no challenges, no growth … just a reflection of ourselves

So the real question is: 
If every conversation gives us only what we want to hear, are we truly connecting Or is it just a quiet, polished kind of loneliness !?

Exactly, i myself sometimes talk to those bots, but there’s still a clear difference between interacting with a bot and a human
What I’m talking about is definitely emotional and human interactions, not just information

The truth is, we already can’t always tell who we’re talking to. For example, on Farcaster, it’s getting harder to know whether an account is run by an AI or a human. And in the future, it’ll be even more difficult, you won’t be able to tell if the text or images you see are real or generated.

We need to adapt. The key question is: what do you want to get from the internet or social networks? Knowledge, information, emotional value, these things might not necessarily need to come from humans anymore.
