Western society has become a hollowed-out shell of communal life, where AI chatbots act as digital opioids providing addictive facsimiles of human relationships. These are symptoms of societal collapse, where atomization drives the masses to seek solace in algorithms.

I feel like at least earlier models would sometimes produce funny deranged shit, but recent ones feel more like Cleverbot; Safe, sanitized, ultra-processed. The most fun I had was like 2 years ago, when I pasted a Bash command into a prompt and the bot suddenly started acting like it was an interactive shell. Suddenly I was logged into a fictional UNIX System with other active "users" that I could mess with. It didn't last long, and it wasn't my intention at all, but it was somewhat entertaining.

How can anyone have a conversation with one of those Chatbots and feel like they're talking to a person? AI Players in Age of Empires are more interesting and engaging than Chatbots imo.
