       @tiago Very much interested to see how point 3 plays out. Businesses will go where people are. Will we see the hotmail/gmail equivalent of mastodon instances, heavily promoted and loaded with ads and trackers?

       @Wolven I haven't seen a ton of discussion of this but I think it's a really fascinating topic. Thanks for the link.In March this year as ChatGPT hype peaked, I wrote in a comment: "I've recently started to think that an AI 'deity' is going to emerge at some point, and things are going to get really, really weird. The human psyche seems primed for religion/worship. What if anyone could talk directly to their god, as much as they could possibly want?", and I stand by it, though it hadn't really occurred to me that the epicenter of this might in fact be the AI companies themselves.It strikes me that we're in the midst of a sea change, where organized religion has seen great declines, and the pseudoreligion of the "American dream" has no clothes, leaving a vacuum...to be filled by AI?

       @foone Realizing on seeing this post that the clunking sensation from lifting a ball mouse off the desk is still deeply ingrained in my muscle memory despite not having regularly used one in like 25 years. I can *feel* it.
