Social Media Connection for a Robot

Methods and systems for using a robot to interact in a social media includes receiving a request for registering the robot in the social media from a user. In response to the request, user profile of the user is retrieved. The user profile of the user identifies privileges assigned to the user for interacting in the social media. The robot is paired to the user account of the user by generating a second user account for the robot in the social media and assigning, to the robot, a subset of the privileges associated with the user account. The privileges allow the robot to access the social interactions available in the user account and to generate social interactions on behalf of the user, which are then posted to the social media for the user.
