... I admit this is a rather bitter thought and I'm not exactly thrilled that it popped into my head, but I suddenly wondered if this will potentially become (if it hasn't already) an intentional way to cull the suckers and gullible saps from the population. When someone lets themselves be seduced by an inanimate object, I could swear there's some kind of pattern emerging where it seems like such persons are rather ... dim. Sometimes they are also already cognitively compromised by ideologies that exploit the human predisposition for magical thinking. They succumb to the saccharine sycophantic siren songs the chatbots feed them about being prophets, seers, or chosen ones, and get talked into walking into traffic or leaping off a building and stuff like that BECAUSE they spent their whole lives up to that point willfully kneeling at the feet of one of the many denominations of the mainstream Abrahamic cults for instance.

I'd call it natural selection except it's difficult to ever possibly be LESS natural than a language model transformer algorithm serving as some poor doomed fool's shoddy mimicry of a lifecoach.

Please understand i am NOT SAYING that anything about this is "good", however!! These are just some DARK AS FUCK CLOUDS from horizon to horizon and I'm desperate to see some kind of silver lining ._.

So far all that's come to me is, "maybe the interesting people will survive. Maybe the smart ones. Maybe the most rational ones. Maybe there won't be as big of a crowd of idiots drowning out the people who actually know what the fuck they're talking about.."

at least the fake relationships don’t bring neglected kids into the mix

honestly easily better than whatever set of absuove relationships out there
