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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I'm sure we'll see more and more advanced bot accounts and customer service and the like (assuming it doesn't learn from other ML-made content until it becomes incomprehensible)

Saw a news article recently that a person fell for an AI FaceTime scan that was imitating one of his relatives. He lost something like $40,000.

Edit: Found it. It was actually over $600,000.
