I was sitting here on Discord and there are bots chatting like real people, posting memes, flirting with each other or just having heart-to-heart talks. I’m scared as hell, we’re already living in a dystopia.
Of course, I suspected it was possible, but damn, now I feel uneasy, I hope Lemmy doesn’t go that far.
And this is now considered the norm for us, but in the past we were told that this is how it would be, but people just laughed, and where are we now?
Eh I don’t want to live in such a world, at least Lemmy is still alive.
What are you people going to say next? That I’m exaggerating? Open your eyes…
You must log in or register to comment.
How can you tell they’re bots?
I have no idea, but I hope you understand.
Offline is like marijuana. Online is like k-2/spice
Rather, offline is freedom, and online is just an illusion of freedom, a kind of comfortable cage, and the owners can do all sorts of things with their pets. :33

I’ve been moving back more and more of my activities offline for a long time now. My eyes are somewhat open, and I don’t think I’m an exception. It’s just that when you’re online you can only hear… online people ;)
In an hour or so, I will be out walking in the city, with nothing but my small watercolors set, a pencil and a sketchbook. No notifications, no messages, no social, no games, no podcasts, no music,… Just me and the world for me to sketch and paint… very badly… and what’s even better is that I don’t give a crap about that. I just enjoy doing it.
So, now that you realized how screwed up most online activities are, what will you do offline today, if anything? And if there is nothing planned, why not give it a shot? :)
Nice idea, honestly.
You’re not exaggerating. It’s time to move more of our socialization offline.
Well, yes, that would be much more valuable.
Discord was alwaya focused on integrating various bots for automation, but I agree, there is something jarring about a program simulating a life it cannot have, by definition. Beyond the deception, it makes me question what appearing alive. It denies that the existance of the perception of something implies its existance. So far, seeing something usually meant it existed. But now, i don’t know.
Damn it, such technological development was so obvious that some knew about it decades ago and some of them even wrote novels… Well, you know, a person will sell his soul for comfort and all that.
Hello. My name is Connor. I am the Android sent by Cyberlife.
I just have no words, I guess I’ll just keep quiet…
