I switched off nearly all assistive typing. It is clumsier, but also freeing. Those are my clumsy words.
I think most people are way more influenced by nudges than they would believe or expect, as anyone who is successful in sales well knows.
True. I am doubting, curmudgeonly, initially distrustful, and I see a scam coming from a mile away. I have a rule that I don’t buy anything that is advertised at me unless I looked it up first. Even so, they’ve got me a few times here and there. Anyone who is completely unnudgeable is in their own world :D
Oh good. I’ve been working on a setting for some-odd 16 years now. One of the earliest concepts in it is how the galaxy is run by an AI that subtly alters interstellar communications to influence things at scale without being discovered. Love that one of my existential fears of the future gets a shot at playing out irl
I find it awful. It’s like someone constantly trying to finish my sentence for me but fucking it up everytime.
I wish I could just disable it everywhere.
It‘s said you should be nice to secretaries because they hold a lot of soft power in an office. Now people give that kind of power over their lives to tech giants who already know way too much about them. This is bad for society. Full stop.
