Fuck tiktok and any other platform that controls what you watch rather than letting the user decide

Fr you can talk to the AI version of me. I ain’t socializing in real life you kidding me??
Question is why only go one step back if you could do many. Let your AI Assistent write mine a letter and sent it with the AI-Postman.

Tbh, I think a lot of people are doing extended phone calls and discord convos these days. I can’t go to the grocery without hearing a few loud speaker phone convos, and back when I was more social online I’d leave Skype running in group calls for hours a day after work. (I especially hear Spanish convos over the phone in public from workers phones. I suspect many of these people don’t speak English well and are calling family and friends for social stimulation. I live in FL, USA)
The only thing stopping me now, I think, is I live with my partner and spend tons of time with them, so my social battery is constantly low.
In business environment the number of calls significantly increased. They are replacing 1-on-1 meetings, regular meetings and even water cooler talks.
Luckily for us, nonverbal communication is far more effective.
