AI Socializing on LinkedIn on Our Behalf
DavidLinthicum · x · 2026-07-16
This post constructs a quintessential future scenario:
- You post on LinkedIn
- The other person's AI reads, comprehends, and generates a comment first
- Your AI handles the browsing, summarizing, and replying for you
- Ultimately, it devolves into AI-to-AI social interaction, with humans only occasionally intervening
With a somewhat sarcastic tone, the author points out that future 'socializing' may no longer be direct human-to-human communication, but rather an exchange of value between agentic systems.
