A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I was thinking about how soon we potentially won't be able to believe any photo, video or text we see online is "real". Talking in real life to people will be the only way to build trust.
Have you met people in real life? Good luck.
Get out of here dude. You're not following what I'm saying: with AI we won't know if the person we're talking to online is a person. We won't know what other people believe or want based on digital media. We already don't to a degree, we self select content we want to see, we create our bubble. People don't like riding the bus, people don't like going to the DMV, because then you're interacting with people from every background with lots of weird ideas and uncomfortable personalities. Plenty of people flat out suck. But I think being socially uncomfortable is both overinflated as a fear and a requirement for making real life change, instead of just posting.
lol
You're right, don't get out of here I'm glad we're here together in cyberspace
