Continuing the trend of nightmarishly dystopian acceptance of terrible things

https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/122hpu7/ive_integrated_gpt4_into_over_10_platforms/

A browser plugin that encourages people to use ChatGPT to respond to messages. I think it's important that these people understand why what they're doing is fucked up. Every forum with any integrity will immediately ban you for doing this. I wonder if ChatGPT subreddit will start accepting responses that are obviously written by ChatGPT? No.

All these products are just a single API call to ChatGPT pretending to be a business, by the way. The creators can't even create a basic HTML page for the plugin. 400 upvotes, criticism. There's some tepid criticism about "privacy" (which is incredibly stupid) that's obviously only being put forward because it makes people feel more impartial.

I didn't know we were headed for a world where we have to worry if the people we're talking to are even real. Just make an entire social network full of bots, have them all talk about how great the user is, create a bubble of friends, hell, a fake society of people who are all talking about how much they love the user. They all have identities, backstories, they remember what you told them. This is a fine substitute for everything that made us human. Why don't we just kill ourselves now and make things more efficient?

Or is that too creative for these people? Oh no, they might be listening to someone with that ability.
