At SocialAI, all replies come from bots

A new iOS app called SocialAI offers a Twitter-like experience where users interact exclusively with AI bots. This was reported by Natasha Lomas for TechCrunch. The app was created by Michael Sayman, a 28-year-old programmer from New York. Users can share thoughts and receive endless replies from AI-generated bots with different personality types. Unlike traditional social media, there are no other human users. Sayman sees it as a safe space for private thoughts and feedback. One wonders, however, where the “social” in the name comes into play …

The app is currently free and available without in-app purchases. Whether you should trust your most intimate thoughts to a free app is another question.
