Impressive how a single guy pathology shaped an entire generation and the internet
I’m wondering whether this is a privileged/feels like deserves privilege white guy thing.
Down here with the queerdos and minorities, I’m seeing people engage more fully with each other, be more willing to take on friends and lovers, in the last few months.
Some are getting caught by chat bots, yes, but a lot of people are out there trying to grab human connection while we still can.
I certainly feel like the “I’m the übermensch and revel in cruelty, empathy is a weakness” mentality that the straight basic wypipo have adopted will not only discourage other people from wanting to be their friend, but also discourages themselves from seeking friendship, because they see it as a weakness.
I already know a couple of people who already talk to chatbots as if they were their friends. This is so depressing… And by the current state of things, I might be reading bot publications and replying to bots here and there, without knowing. That just increases my will to die
Of course he would say that, Chatbots are the only friends he has.
How people still use meta products is beyond me
Whatsapp for my family group, Instagram rarely to keep with my friends (I’m gen z)
Is that so? Will the chatbots help me pack a van when I need to move? Will they stand next to me at my wedding? I’m thrilled to hear that bots can finally replace friends! (Something the people have been clamoring for)
With amount of walker bots prototypes… Soon.
I could live out the remainder of my life without using a Zuckerberg product and be totally fine with that.
You would in fact be better off.
No Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, Occulus Rift. And of course whatever else they will buy up in the future.
He thinks that based on the few years of bots people already talking to on his platforms. Wait for the announcement and see his creepy smile on stage while he says “you already been doing it and that’s ok”. Just. Like. Everything. Else.
Thanks, Cinco!
Not even opening that. I’m tired of these clickbait and hatebait articles.
he’s right. I don’t have any friends.
because I refuse to use his shitty platform and every human I have came in contact with for my entire life is so hollow and selfish they can’t interact with a human being without some form of technology.
so I come on lemmy and harass fascist supporting scum as a hobby.
I tried making a new FB account recently, strictly for business purposes and they suspended my account immediately. Looked it up and apparently it’s pretty common. I was shocked at first but am now happy they did that. Fuck FB.
Now that the US has actual concentration camps and actual Nacht und Nebel disappearances, not to mention arrests of judges and political enemies, we have a lot of folk who have been promoted from silent bystander to collaborator or complicit in the imminent holocaust.
The next step for the regime is to decide imprisonment of the undesirables is too expensive and we should proceed to evacuation (id est, mass execution).
The complicit category includes every elected or appointed official that continues to cooperate with the current government without obstructing procedure until the facilities are closed and prisoners set free, including those on foreign soil. Democrats included.
I would rather talk to a 37 year old human with a hello kitty pfp on some obscure otacore furry/anime forum that absolutely nobody has heard of than give your dogshit AI skinwalkers ten seconds of my attention dawg.
You took my routine. My health. My taste in music, the books I read, the places I go, the movies I watch. My every aspiration and passing thought was a transactional end point for slop firms.
I will die old and lonely before I let you turn my friendships into a fucking commodity LMAO.
Fuck you four eyes
He’s half-right.
He’s right, and none of my friends even post to Facebook anymore (neither do I).
