Seems like a step backwards in a way. Social media is the past, and AI is the future, etc.

But then again, would be a trove of first party data.

It'll be a bot-first social network and therefore won't have to attempt some kind of "bots are welcome too" framing act to appease an existing (and skeptical) user-base.

LOL "bots first" ... See, we feed the slop from the AIs back to the AIs! it's brilliant!

For bots to communicate with bots to get things done, and people in the loop when they want to be, or so I'd imagine. Agentic over generative.

Everyone is worried about how to censor abuse content on social networks. Finally someone steps up and makes a social network for and about abusing your family members.*

*Allegedly.
