What do you think about this approach to social networks? I think she is right in this, for me the social networks don't make much sense any more as it doesn't lead to any real interaction, which was the purpose of having online connections in first place.

Due to the explosion of AI generated content I feel this applies to the Web in general. I rarely read or engage with anything anymore because what's the point.

This is mostly specifically about Facebook (Instagram) and the friends circle. People you used to know in person but they don't interact any more.
