SocialAI is the social network with several bots, and you

As with any market, social networks these days need to catch up and really come up with something unique and different to stand out from the crowd. And that’s what SocialAI seems to be trying to do with its approach.

The new iOS app offers a slightly different kind of social interaction. It turns out that SocialAI is a one-person platform where there’s only one human on it: you. It’s powered entirely by bots, or artificial intelligence, and at least you can be sure that you’ll never be ignored.

Proposed by SocialAI

At first, SocialAI seems like just another social media platform. In fact, its interface will be immediately recognized by many people, as it is extremely similar to Twitter. Both in terms of appearance and features, since it is possible to post comments, interact with other “users” posts and even like other publications.

The big difference here is that you are the main character on this platform, since you are the only human on it. All the other “people” present there are actually AI-generated bots. Therefore, all your posts will have several reactions and comments, and you can start a conversation about various topics.

This is because these bots are programmed to maintain a conversation and react to everything you post, whether it be positive comments or even sarcastic criticism. Depending on your choices, they will not always agree with you, which is an important factor in having a discussion about something.

The big appeal here is that your posts will always get maximum attention, it’s like feeling viral or even important within a social network. And best of all, there are no real humans to spoil the mood or bring you down as is so common nowadays.

In other words, while normal social networks like Twitter and Instagram focus mainly on interacting with other people, SocialAI wants to put the user as the main character within its platform. And this is very clear from the beginning: all other profiles are bots.

Choosing your “followers” ​​on SocialAI

One of the most interesting details about SocialAI is that you can customize and choose which types of bots will interact with you, that is, what your followers will be like. The platform currently has a wide variety of “follower types”, such as “nerds”, “intellectuals”, “trolls”, even “conservatives”, “liberals” and “sarcastic critics”.

In total, there are 32 types of bots that are already available there, and this number will probably increase over time. You need to choose at least 3 types to start posting, but there is no maximum limit. In other words, to choose to have all types of bots in the comments, just choose all types.

But you can also customize the type of experience you will have on the social network, since you are the one who “controls everything” there. So if you want your posts and thoughts to always be well received and praised, then just choose follower styles such as “fans”, “supporters” and “charmers”. That way, even your simplest posts will have comments like “You look amazing” or “Simply stunning”.

If you like to be contradicted sometimes or simply want to generate controversy, you can also choose to have “sarcastic” followers or the famous “trolls”, who will certainly spice up the comments with critical or mocking observations. And even then, they will not come close to the level of real trolls in the online world today.

The most interesting thing of all is that SocialAI aims to adapt to each user’s behavior over time through machine learning. This way, interactions are gradually adjusted according to the type of content you consume and even your preferred types of followers. It’s a way to personalize the experience even more.

Guaranteed privacy and total freedom

One of the great promises of SocialAI is total privacy. There are no human eyes watching your interactions or comments. This means that, despite its similar look to classic social networks, the new platform stands out for offering a space without judgment or real consequences, which allows users to better explore their ideas without fear of being publicly criticized.

While the concept of interacting solely with AI may seem strange to some, it can be quite liberating for those looking for a safer space where every word will be responded to and where there is no unpredictability of human interactions. With SocialAI, you are in complete control of your experience, with bots programmed to adapt to what you want to see and hear.

The big question is: will this purely artificial social experience be satisfying in the long run? Or will the human factor always be necessary for a social network to fulfill its true purpose? SocialAI could be just the beginning of a new trend, or a curious experiment that will soon be forgotten.
