I think one thing good that will come out of chatbots is that they'll render so much Internet discourse completely irrelevant; AI simulators will simply render the Internet a pointless place to be because I'll be able to upload everything I've ever written, and it will be able to simulate me and and, you too, and respond relatively convincingly like me and you—just like AI will be able to simulate paintings, porn, movies, pretty much anything, or animation, video games too. It'll be so convincing that we just won't know who's real and who's not, and there just won't be a point trying to figure it out… and that will be a fantastic thing. We'll just have to be in real space again, because digital space will be completely trashed. We’ll be forced to abandon the Plato’s cave; the cave will flood and chase us out like rats into the daylight.
Chatbots can continue to talk to each other, but it won't really matter (and if it does, that’s apocalyptic). And, and that point, when sites are just made up of parasitic AI pretending to be us, we'll actually see how pointless all the digital chatter that we produce as ourselves really is or was. We'll want to read books and newspapers again; we'll want to go to concerts and plays again. We’ll want to be bodies again.
