Ask HN: How much [more] value to AI do declining social media platforms have?
Clearly both X and Meta are trying to leverage the massive historical dataset they have of real human interactions as an advantage as they pivot into becoming AI companies. Neither of their social media platforms are on the assent anymore.
I’m starting to wonder though if these datasets really are as valuable as they think and if they will remain valuable as this space matures.
Thus far, I don’t know of anyone using Grok or LLAMA. Are these pivots gonna be too little too late? Are these companies on the verge of rapid implosion?
How do you think they derive worth from old posts and tweets?
Meta will make more money from Instagram than Facebook. Inside X/Twitter, I assume they’re desperately trying to negotiate for corporate-palatable influencers.
