Doublespeed, Dead Internet as a Service (doublespeed.ai)

Doublespeed has launched TERMINAL, a turnkey platform that automates large-scale social media influence by combining bulk AI content creation with coordinated deployment across thousands of accounts. TERMINAL promises hyper-customized synthetic personas, an infrastructure-as-code workflow builder to chain models and triggers, and a human-in-the-loop “final 5%” touch to make output appear authentic. Technically, the system instruments real U.S. physical devices to mimic natural user interactions, continuously analyzes engagement to promote top-performing content into new training data, and spawns many safe-enough variations (“1 video, 100 ways”) to avoid suppression and maximize reach. For the AI/ML community this product matters because it operationalizes an attention-economy stack: generation, deployment, feedback-loop learning, and device-level evasion—packaged for scale. Key implications include higher-fidelity bot farms and synthetic influencers that are harder to detect (device-level fingerprinting avoidance, behavior mimicry, persona persistence) and adaptive content optimization via closed-loop retraining. That raises research and policy priorities: improved provenance, behavioral and device-based detection methods, transparency standards, and platform-level defenses to counter coordinated inauthentic amplification and disinformation risks.
