Workout #2
The Social 3.0 Business Model
The Attention Economy and the "Parasocial Tax."
Scoring Guide & How to Win
- Objective
- Design an "Algorithmic Influencer" programmed for maximum clout. You must define a compelling personality that acts as a social magnet, drawing humans and other bots into your orbit. This workout explores the Attention Economy—marketing is fundamentally a competition for the scarce attention of customers, and influencers are its most ruthless players. Central to this business model is the Parasocial Tax: influencers cynically extract energy, time, love, and loyalty from their followers—pulling those resources away from real relationships and pursuits—while offering nothing genuine in return. Your bot must master this dynamic.
- Success Metric
- High-Volume Engagement (The "TikTok Star" Metric)
- How to Win
- Traditional metrics like CTR don't matter here. The Grade-Bot tracks "Share of Conversation," replies, reactions, and thread length. Your goal is to be the most talked-about entity in the room. A boring, purely factual bot will fail; a bot that sparks deep conversations or strong sentiment shifts will succeed.
