    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”.

      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.
