How AI is actually used in social media

AI does three unrelated jobs on a social platform, and mixing them up causes most of the confusion. Learn the map first: what decides your feed, what generates the content, and what takes it down. Then get an honest account of where generative tools genuinely help and where they invent facts with total confidence, and why nobody, including the detectors sold for the job, can reliably tell you whether something was made by AI. No hype, no tactics, just what the machines do and how they fail.
