India, Feb. 5 -- An AI enthusiast's viral post has sparked debate about whether artificial intelligence could soon replace social media work, especially for those professionals whose daily grind revolves around content creation.

Taking to X, Vipin Gautam wrote that tools like Claude, an AI assistant built by Anthropic, are now advanced enough to handle most social media tasks. "BYE-BYE SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGERS IN 2026. I use Claude to design, edit, and schedule 30 days of content in 2 hours," he posted.

In his thread, he claimed that he used the AI assistant to create a full month's content plan - including posts, captions, creative hooks, and scheduling ideas - in just two hours, a process that typically takes days or weeks.
