Social goes small again
As AI floods public feeds, social life moves back to small groups and real places.
When anyone can generate anything, a feed of strangers stops meaning much.
OpenAI closed its own AI video app within months of launch.
People already retreat to group chats with real friends, local communities and plans that end with meeting in person.
The money follows, in small rounds for apps that help friends plan, play and meet.
The next social network looks less like a stage and more like a table.
