If you’re referring to AIM (and other messengers) as “social media,” I would definitely describe them as having a net positive impact on at least my personal life.
It’s more like Google chat or your contacts list of folks you SMS with. People you probably know from high school and nowadays you’d text, but AOL Instant Messager was free, used a device with a full keyboard, and didn’t require a cell phone which you didn’t have because it was 2001.

All right then, “beneficial.” To anyone involved.
