Ask HN: Could a "social mode" in AI chats replace social media?

I could see this being useful as a matchmaker on a dating app, specifically for introductions.

Part of the problem with social media is getting noticed/finding community (at least on X). Maybe if the AI finds you interesting enough it could help broker connections to other people... I can't tell if this would be weird and terrible or if it would be nice.

I could believe it supplements, but I do not think mediated communications will replace.

I could believe it does autotranslate on the fly. I would enjoy having more nuanced conversations with people in economies where their ESL is low and I do not speak their native language.

Yes, I think so. At least I'm working on a project like that and I have been enjoying using it myself in place of having social media apps.

It has to be its own product and feature. No way would people want this in ChatGPT.
