Je nachdem, wie wir KI in den sozialen Medien einsetzen und welche neuen Funktionen Meta, TikTok und Co. uns zur Verfügung stellen, besteht jedoch ein Risiko. Wenn zu viel KI und zu wenig Persönlichkeit zum Einsatz kommen, könnte Social Media das verlieren, was es ausmacht: Austausch, Informationen und Unterhaltung, meint Jan Firsching. Er glaubt, dass wir das nicht wollen. Hoffentlich. #SocialMedia
