>>112091 Of course it seems like progress if you have the mindset of a goyim drone consumer that'd repeat a lame surface level interpretation like this. Snap out of it lad.
Take this technology to its logical conclusion and even ignore its current predominance as a tool to industrialize massive fraud on behalf of third worlders who'd literally be rolling around in their own shit without it (and have instead become legitimate "trusted journalists", "artisans", "musicians", and "authors" as far as you're concerned), corporations defrauding customers, employees defrauding their employers. Beyond all that deceit, beyond the almost comically super villainous effect on the environment, what it will soon evolve to be is a means to trap those under its spell into a permanent, endless cycle of seductive, masturbatory self-curated fraudulent content in which hundreds of hours worth of consumption can be manifested with minutes' worth of input.
It has irrevocably poisoned illustration, animation, photography, film, music, creative writing, graphic design, non-fiction writing-not a single aspect of the "digital life" has gone untainted by its employ or reasonable suspicion thereof and this ingress has a residual effect on the real world in which people are discincentivized to pursue healthy self-actualization in favor of the equivalent of entering a query into "Google Images" and pressing "enter" over and over again until a self-satisfactory result is produced.
