Social Authenticity (#SocAuth) is a crucial concept in online social media, emphasizing the importance of presenting a genuine version of oneself, business, community, or brand. In a world often plagued by information distortion and superficiality, being true to one's representation in online environments is paramount. The need for social authenticity has intensified due to the growing social trust crisis in our modern society.
With the increasing prevalence of Artificial Intelligence in online social media, users seek trusted interactions and verifiable authenticity. AI plays a significant role in ensuring social authenticity, although there is a clear divide between AI for Good and AI for social manipulation. In this landscape, AN aims to empower users to emerge victorious in this ongoing battle.
