a quick glance @ the 1st line in jack’s post & i thought this was a Public Service Announcement telling us to get off our phones and strike up a real conversation with a real person around me.
this clicked open the thought of an AI app for introverts. Voice input their immediate situation, where they are, who is around, what's the function, venue...etc. The app will give him/her the perfect opening line to start a human to human conversation.
realizing that for this to work as intended there must be an all caps, bold message "TURN THE PHONE OFF AND PUT IT AWAY BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOUR CONVERSATION. I thought, wow this app could really help save civilization.
then i thought how ironic and impossible the app is. An AI app to get humans to act like humans. The final picture came into my human brain. Two humans speaking to each other, looking only at their phones in hand. We are doomed, AI agents using humans as their communication channel.
