This is a good thing. social media was already slop before AI. If this gets more intellectuals off these same websites daily and instead spend their time to better things, then I love AI slop’s purpose. There’s more to the internet than Reddit, TikTok, and youtube. Really there is, if your circle of friends is small or non existent without going to the same dotcoms, you have an issue that is worse than any AI slop tbh

AI will cure cancer if it didn’t already just as much AI will help continue prevent the awareness of such cures.

With an iPhone 15 Pro I set the new dedicated action to a Siri shortcut that launches another AI app. Whether “voice in a can” work around for Alexa or any other AI app that preferably auto listens like voice in a can does. Siri on the right button, other assistant on the left button.
