Description

Explore the changing landscape of digital interaction with Socialbots and Their Friends: Digital Media and the Automation of Sociality. Published by Routledge, this book examines the rise of a new type of software robot designed to mimic human behavior on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter. While standard bots handle tasks like weather updates or email filtering, socialbots represent a different evolution in technology. These programs are built to appear human by engaging in active social behaviors. They do more than just process data; they ask questions, hold conversations, like posts, and retweet content to build digital relationships. This text provides a deep look into how these automated programs integrate into our social lives and how they differ from traditional bots. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the sociology of digital media and the ways automation is reshaping how we connect, communicate, and form friendships in an increasingly automated online world.
