We all know it, AI is better than you so just move over and let AI do the job 😉.

    How the fuck is an ai going to date other wingmen for you? Is this an online thing? if so, what the fuck, are people having first dates with wingmen present on discord or some shit now? If this an in person thing, what are you going to show up to a bar alone and hand your dates friend a fucking phone to chat with all night?

      This really is the idea bouncing through many tech companies heads right now.

      Take yourself, give the app enough of you for an AI version of you to be trained on, then have that AI interact with other people’s AIs to… save everyone time.

      Zoom is currently trying to make this work for meetings. Meetings suck, right? So here, lets turn everyone into AI facsimiles and have those things ‘meet’ and then just email everyone the resulting transcript.

      So basically now everyone will just get transcripts of AIs hallucinating at each other instead of actually being present in meetings which probably could have just been an email anyway.

      (Zoom is also promoting this ‘new vision’ at the same time they’re demanding their own employees stop working remotely).

      The tech bros run everything now and they’ve completely lost their minds.

          Just give them a CyberTruck and have it Full Self Drive themselves into a pond.

          The doors and window controls will short out and lock you in. Its not waterproof so water will be seeping in. The electronics will short out. The windows cannot be broken. The battery may explode/burn like thermite

          Its a race between what will kill you faster: Drowning, Toxic Asphyxiation, Electrocution, or Burning.

        But you will still need to be in the office for all that because of falling commercial real estate portfolios.

          I am unfortunately too young to have seen or even heard of that movie, but I do like the song!

          As to the scene itself: Mhm, yep, its basically that, but many orders of magnitude more expensive, complicated, and even worse, as an multi-AI generated conversation is basically certain to say things you wouldn’t say, ask things you wouldn’t ask, and agree to things you wouldn’t agree to.

              For dating apps in particular this is even more stupid.

              It used to be the case that if you were talking to a bot, or a person pretending to be someone else… well you’d probably drop the whole app and determine its a scam.

              Now that’s apparently a groundbreaking, paradigm shifting feature.

              … I have lost the ability to parody, these last few years. The dumbest things imaginable just keep happening and getting normalized.
