How does anyone enjoy this? It doesn’t even feel real. No spelling mistakes? What the fuck is a skycot?
I may have never had a match on a dating app that wasn’t a cryptobot or only fans girl, but I also don’t swipe right on every single woman on it. You’d think my loneliness would attempt me to try and pretend it was real or something, but it just doesn’t work.
LLMs are going to make the world stupid, I guarantee it.
This reminds me of the people who genuinely fall for “romance scams”, and the scammer has all the personality and vocabulary of a wet paper bag.
And yet somehow someone will believe they’re some hot (barely literate) U.S soldier stuck in Kuwait until they can get a flight home to meet the victim for only $2000… Wait, $1000 more… But then there’s a $500 fee… And then…
Blows my mind…
Even if it’s not actively a scam, there are some bizarre life stories out there. E.g. my mom’s (Central European) friend in her 60s who had a long-distance relationship with a married Turkish guy until recently. They met (and banged) each other a grand total of once, but they were sharing morning tea on video call for years before and after that - they had no common language, only used Google Translate to talk??? And she gathered up her meagre savings to to Turkey every year on the off-chance that she runs into him in a millions-population city??? (No they didn’t arrange meetings. The guy didn’t really seem to want to meet her anymore, probably related to being married lol.)
And somehow this “relationship” went on for like a decade before she finally broke up with him.
shit like this is what actually makes me feel terrified, the idea that people will actually go out of their way to do obviously insane things while acting normally otherwise feels so fucking sinister

Waaaaaaay too late for that…
Stupider?
I think the constant brain rot from the cradle will have a much worse effect in that regard. In my uneducated opinion, LLMs are scary due to cultivating delusions of every kind.
