    I’m hoping social media (the shitty algorithmic kind like facebook) vanishes.

    Its a fucking cancer on society

      Monkey paw: Social media instead gets replaced by “AI” chatbots. People stop talking to each other directly, instead living in a fantasy world where they pretend the “‘AI’ assistant” is their servant that’ll relay messages to other people, I mean we already have people that, instead of typing the message, they say “Hey siri, send a message to [X] about [Y]”. People stop having relationships, instead, they’ll “marry” their “AI” assistant, who will also become their “best friend” and “therapist”.

        There was this social media platform in which all your friends are ai. Absolutely terrifying.

        Dictating a text to send (word-for-word) is usually an accessibility thing, or for when you can’t text or call for safety reasons like when driving.

        The enabling attachment to fictional characters via AI is dangerous though, I agree.

          There were people showing images that their AI agent created to show the AI’s “perspective” on the relationship with its human. A high number were romantic or at least a deeper relationship between a human and their tools.
