A Unified Theory of Influence—From Ancient Persuaders to AI Futures Influence is everywhere: in the parent teaching a child, the advertiser crafting a message, the algorithm curating a feed, the state deploying propaganda.

Influencers and the Influenced integrates memetic theory—the study of cultural replicators—with persuasion psychology and network science to explain how ideas, beliefs, and behaviors spread through populations. The analysis spans from humanity’s earliest influencers (parents, priests, teachers) through the contemporary landscape of social media creators to speculative futures involving artificial intelligence and post-human cognition.
