Is AI Taking over Social Media?

Is AI already taking over social media… or are we closer than we think? In this episode, we dive into the rapidly changing world of AI and how it’s beginning to shape everything we see online. From the idea of an AI-only social media platform to the possibility that most content could soon be generated—not created—we explore where this is all heading. We break down: What happens when feeds are driven almost entirely by AI Whether authenticity still matters in a world of generated content How algorithms may evolve to understand you better than you understand yourself And what the future of social media—and society—could look like because of it This isn’t just about technology… it’s about behavior, attention, and what it means to be human in a digital world.
