Everyday, we are undoubtedly evolving as tech-enthusiasts and I believe social media is going to be a huge disruption in our lives. Do you think technologies like AI, VR, Metaverse would greatly influence the upcoming dimensions of social media. Would love to hear your perspective on what social media holds in the future?

Social media in the future will most likely be almost completely controlled by AI. I don't think people will be able to differentiate whether they are conducting a conversation with another human or Artificial Intelligence. If you think about it how would you know? Human conversation has been truncated down to 140 characters, shorts, headlines, Tiks, and Toks. Our attention span and tolerance for long form content is slowly being diminished over time. Surely in the near future AI will be able to replace all short form communication, if not already. I wrote an article for MMAP Magazine on a similar subject you may find interesting. After you read the article I would love to know what you think. I can't remember if there is a happy ending so beware...lol Article title is; The Metaverse Is A Prison For Your Mind https://open.substack.com/pub/mm...

Social media is a great channel for D2C kind of businesses. It is known that 60% of revenue for these businesses comes from social media channels! I firmly believe techs like AI, VR and metaverse brings all together a new experience for the content consumers.

I think AI, VR, and Metaverse can provide much immersive experience. People could actually meet in the virtual world. Also, the VR content on social media would engage many people and provide heightened sense of actually being present in the virtual world. I found an interesting article that elaborates on this topic: https://www.forbes.com/sites/ber...

@bipinjg omg I can't imagine a twitter or facebook argument in the metaverse. Debates and politics could get interesting for sure.

This is such an interesting topic, @janvikaurpanesar. With the Web3 in place, the space in which social media is currently operating would be completely changed, and it would not be confined to just "Like," "Share," and "Subscribe." The perfect example of a web-based social media service is xone.gg, which is built on blockchain and NFTs allowing users to create and share virtual worlds using AR. In terms of the Metaverse, social media platforms in the future will strive to provide immersive, interactive experiences that stimulate as many senses as possible, rather than simply connecting us to our friends.

Pretty interesting - with channels turning into handles, profiles turning into avatar and more. Your customers / followers will own a unique identity on the internet. While the fundamentals by which we target them may more or less be the same - the approach may change significantly. Example: Today, if you are able to make the graphic / content visually engaging (from a 2D standpoint), you can have a great CTR. Imagine a metaverse setting where this content / graphic is also judged on the sense of experience a user has looking at it and hence a completely new dimension that will judge how your CTR will look. Some companies are doing real cool innovations in this space, but it'll take time till a SOP is established!

Of course, we can already communicate in a number of ways via social media. Text, voice call, video call, there's no shortage of ways to keep in touch with friends and family. But imagine you could feel like you were right there, in the room with them? VR technology could make this a reality.

1. Search on Social Media Instead of Engines 2. More Reliance on Influencers 3. Seamless Shopping Experience on Most Socials 4. Higher VR/AR Adoption

social media sits operating within specific verticals will have increasing success, such as sport, finance, automotive, music, film, and other large volume opportunities.

This particular social media trend is pretty controversial, given the evident vulnerability of children to the dangers of the online space. Recently, Instagram announced that they were developing a child-friendly version of their popular social media app, fittingly called Instagram Kids. This platform was intended to be ad-free, so as to not influence children to buy certain products.
