Mark Zuckerberg Thinks You Don't Have Enough Friends and His Chatbots Are the Answer

  He thinks that based on the few years of bots people already talking to on his platforms. Wait for the announcement and see his creepy smile on stage while he says “you already been doing it and that’s ok”. Just. Like. Everything. Else.

  I’d love to see the source for this “3 friends” statistic, that sounds like a mountain of bullshit.

  From the metaverse to his new AI fueled drivel. Zuckerberg has been very busy trying to convince us to divest from the real world and submerge ourselves into his virtual worlds of delight. Up to this point his products have been pure shit. But I worry the time will come where better engineered “mirrors in our cages” will succeed where the Zuck is just flopping abount.

  I don’t think this guy understands the concept of a friend. “Friend” isn’t just a speaking machine. Friendship is mostly about some deeds. In many cases even useful deeds, not just fun messing around.

  For several reasons (including this one), I deactivated my Facebook account a month ago, but have kept Messenger to maintain contact with people. Does anyone have a good suggestion for a different app that functions like Messenger, but helps me divest from feeding Markie Mark my valuable user data?

  He’s right, and none of my friends even post to Facebook anymore (neither do I).

  The one and only good thing about having less friends than in my teens is that I have more time to focus on work, which makes me money (directly proportional to how much I bill my clients). That and being able to move off Facebook because my friends are on Signal and Telegram.

  Now, Zuck thinks I want fake AI friends so I could spend hours per day on Messenger again? Hell nah. I’ll go grab a beer in the pub or message one of my remaining real friends. If I dedicate my life to chatbots, I’ll soon have even fewer.

    Trading youth for slaving away for capitalism is lame tho.

    Money can’t buy youth and when it’s gone it’s gone.

      Wake me up when there’s a system out there where I don’t need money to buy a home or go on vacation somewhere warm when it’s -30 outside. Unfortunately I don’t have a trust fund, so for now it’s work rather than drinking every day and tons of extremely shallow friendships. To be clear, I’m not saying I don’t have friends, I’m just saying I no longer have hundreds of people on Facebook I could just randomly message “what’s up” to without it being considered weird. Now it’s down to maybe 10-20 people who would help me hide a body if I called them at 3 AM.

  I don’t know Mark, I might not, but at least I have good friends. Can you say the same for yourself?

  We don’t want to chat with you Zuck.

  We can put our spy specs on and update our spy site profile on our spy device and if there is anything left that is just ours we can now tell it to our spy friend.
