    “Social” isn’t part of the title. Meta is the company that acquired the site.

    I also fail to see the ROI for buying a social media site for AI. There’s no advertising revenue to be made. At best you’re just charging a subscription fee.

      Often times these purchases are not for the product itself, but how it can be incorporated into an existing product. I imagine if Meta makes bot accounts for people to follow/engage with, they can increase user retention and therefore ad revenue.
