AI is not a "complement" of a social network in the way Spolsky defines the term. > A complement is a product that you usually buy together with another product. Gas and cars are complements. Computer hardware is a classic complement of computer operating systems. And babysitters are a complement of dinner at fine restaurants. In a small town, when the local five star restaurant has a two-for-one Valentine’s day special, the local babysitters double their rates. (Actually, the nine-year-olds get roped into early service.) > All else being equal, demand for a product increases when the prices of its complements decrease. Smart phones ar a complement of Instagram. VR headsets are a complement of the metaverse. AI could be a component of a social network, but it's not a complement.
