Adam Aleksic, a linguist and content creator, emphasizes that language serves as a reflection of human behavior and communication. At just 24 years old, he has gained millions of followers on social media platforms by creating educational videos about linguistics. His book, "Algospeak: How Social Media Is Transforming the Future of Language," outlines how social media is shaping communication, introducing new grammatical rules and slang. According to Aleksic, we are experiencing an inflection point where short-form video content is central to how information is consumed across various channels.
"Language is a really cool proxy for human behavior. It's our way of capturing what reality is, and then a way of relating that to each other."
"We're at a new inflection point, characterized by personally recommended short-form video content. All channels of communication...are gravitating toward the medium by necessity, because that's what people have been conditioned to consume."
