IDK what. Internet and people are usually shallow. Internet is shallow since like 2005 when it became more widespread and accessible. Sometimes I find myself raising autistic kids on it.
There was that video game Prey. Where the people had their stuff outsourced to flying toaster AI robots called operators. So they can be present patiently and persistent everywhere. You could have like a doctor flying toaster. I want that. I have seen how limited are human doctors under these current circumstances of being in an overly monetized system.
Also human connections are important, but they are usually flawed and backfire.
Not like that people are wrong, they just suffer from this fetal alcohol syndrome and pregnant smoking related innate oxygen deprivation and stuff like that.
It's always refreshing to read something that I can be 100% sure was not written by an AI.
I like that too. The authentic experience, everybody being compassionate for everyone.
Yet sadly that cannot happen. Time of people usually go for survival in this modern world.
On the AI line, let's take like an autistic kid in this new age. Having like 3000 unique question marks and unique drives.
Instead of his/her family relatives, failing him/her not giving enoungh attention. It can bash an AI. How to be car mechanic, how to be a doctor.
Bash everyting, it feels good.
He will get then easy answers nobody never got before. Are they a bit uncanny, jagged and choppy. Yes they are. But they are a bit better than nothing. But it is just the begining phase of this.
Sure there will ample places devoid of this blasphemy as it is uncomlete, jagged and glitchy.
