I don't know who I care less about, "Meta" or "Celebrities".

Exactly.. I came here to write how can anyone be that stupid to chat with that but I realised that I'm on Lemmy so most of the people here are not sheep as on fb or even reddit.

Yep. It’s the annoying successful business model for AI that us geeks or whatever didn’t ever see coming.

I literally just had this conversation with a friend about how many viable businesses are in the current iteration of AI. They said chatting with celebrity AIs. I said what are you talking about … until I realised it’s totally be a thing and I just couldn’t see it.
