Here's who has the most juice in Twitter's AI influencer community

Insight analyst Lizzie Dunmore today published an analysis of Twitter interactions on the topic of AI between the general public, the media, and the 18 most influential AI influencers. Dunmore, who works for Onalytica, looked at a year's worth of tweets from 3,000 influencers and 1,000 news media outlets to figure out who the most influential AI tweeters tweeting on Twitter'twere (that's bad grammar; good poetic license). She also determined what impact their interactions (likes and retweets) had on the top media outlets publishing AI stories. Furthermore, she even revealed whether the media outlets or the individual influencers had more influence on the general public. The Top 50 Media Outlets had a 93x larger reach on average than the Top 50 Influencers yet, despite this, influencers' average engagement per follower on AI posts was 168x higher than that seen for media outlets.
