A typical post picks up 27 interactions against 766K followers, an engagement rate of 0.004%. Measured over 88 original posts, its engagement rate beats 22% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 6.5K times each, and 0.417% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.845% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Measured over 88 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 30, 2026. Recurring tags: #ai, #longreads, #sciencemagarchives.
