I work in adult marketing and AI is encouraged for you horny ass mfs
People used to tell me all the time about how AI is gonna take over my job and I just laugh at them
We just recently got CPDLC, which is essentially a “text based” form of communication to pilots and it still messes up. Their session will expire, they won’t get my “route changes” or frequency changes.. it is helpful with lack of talking on frequency and can be easy for quick requests but there is NO WAY a computer can takeover the whole National Airspace
We still have places where you lose people in radar at 4-5,000 feet
How’s a computer system gonna move planes when they aren’t even in radar

You have in important role in aviation which would never be 100%. AI still coming for most shyt.
Not even close of an analogy.
Not 1 company has "replaced" their phone agents with Ai.
They utilize both and the Ai works so poorly that most of the time people get routed to an actual human.
I had to call Microsoft last week and definitely determined they were routing me to never talk to a real person via AI, you know how u play the game to get to speak with a real person. It ended with them routing me to some help channel or something, I don't recall
Every time I called backed, its like their phone IVR already knew it was me calling back, no selecting another option to go down a rabbit hole, it was straight up, go check our forum or whatever. Even trying a different number for them, same result.
I was shook
As time goes on it will be scary.

chatgpt is just one service, there are literally dozens if not over a hundred companies with tens of millions of users globally. Baidu, tencent, Alibaba, snapchat, microsoft copilot, anthropic claude, google gemini and many more probably have over a billion AI users total.

AI has replaced human best friends for 20 million people.
This isn't a joke. It's Character AI's monthly user base.
The loneliness epidemic is making real people *literally* fall in love with AI chatbots.
Here's the startling story
2/13
@aisolopreneur
Character AI lets users talk and "hang out" with AI models as friends...
And it has over 20 million monthly users (!!)
Let that sink in.
That's more than the population of New York City. All making friends with AI.
But how exactly does it work?
3/13
@aisolopreneur
"AI that feels alive" is Character AI's slogan.
Celebrities, historical figures, fictional characters – you name it.
Debate philosophy with Socrates.
Flirt with Margot Robbie.
Hang out with your anime crush.
Whoever you want. 24/7.

It's like texting, but your chat partner is an AI trained to mimic a character.
A recent update allows you to call these AI characters on the phone.
And the craziest part?
5/13
@aisolopreneur
Millions (especially Gen Z and millennials) are developing real bonds with these AI characters.
Instead of real humans. Some are even addicted.
Here's a dark example:
6/13
@aisolopreneur
This person isn't alone.
Many top comments (like the one below) also confessed addictions to their AI companions.
It's a lonely world. And people are finding a cure through AI algorithms.
7/13
@aisolopreneur
But why is Character AI exploding in popularity right now?
20 million monthly active users is MASSIVE, so it's not just a passing trend...
It's a profound shift in how young people are socializing.
Let's break down the factors driving this digital companionship boom:
8/13
@aisolopreneur
1. The loneliness epidemic is real
Smartphones. Social media. Screen time.
All of these have contributed to the loneliest period in human history.
And Character AI offers an instant cure – a partner who's always there, always interested, never busy.
9/13
@aisolopreneur
2. Customization is king
Imagine having a friend who's exactly what you need them to be.
Supportive bestie? Check.
Tough-love mentor? You got it.
Flirty celebrity crush? Yep, that too.
Character AI lets you create or choose the perfect companion.
10/13
@aisolopreneur
3. No social anxiety
A Reddit post went viral where an introvert described how Character AI helped them practice social skills.
The comments were filled with similar stories.
People are using AI to overcome social fears in a safe, judgment-free zone.
11/13
@aisolopreneur
4. It's addictively good
The AI is scary good.
It remembers your conversations, adapts to your style, and can discuss almost anything.
It's like having a super-smart, super-attentive friend in your pocket.
12/13
@aisolopreneur
The top post on r/CharacterAI (1.4M members) is the below meme.
Funny, but it also shows the dark trajectory AI companionship is headed on.
Where does this lead?
What happens when people prefer their AI partners to real ones?
This seems like a Black Mirror episode to me.

you should browse the web and find out the various ways people are using AI if you think what they're doing is meaningless.
Ok bruh
I only named ChatGPT because you did. I know about shyt thats not online for public use.. and many other AI’s that you're not even aware exists.
And please, limit the article links to your responses. Nobody reading all that shyt except other nikkas that don’t know wtf theyre talking about

Credit: Off Radio Kraków.If you want to know how it really feels to be replaced by AI, consider reaching out to Mateusz Demski and his fellow journalists, who were recently fired from Off Radio Kraków, a government-owned radio station serving Poland’s second-largest city.
Recently, Off Radio Kraków was relaunched as the first-ever radio channel entirely run by AI. Three AI-generated characters are now hosting programs on the channel, but this move has ignited a nationwide controversy.
Soon after the relaunch, Demski released an open letter against the channel’s decision to replace human journalists with AI presenters. Within the next 24 hours, 15,000 people signed a petition in his support.
“It is a dangerous precedent that hits us all. It could open the way to a world in which experienced employees associated with the media sector for years and people employed in creative industries will be replaced by machines,” Demski wrote.
However, the representatives from Off Radio claim that the channel was previously closed and Demski and his colleagues were fired because of diminishing listenership. This has nothing to do with the AI presenters, which is an experiment to relaunch the radio station, they claim.
Meet the three AI radio hosts
Despite facing heavy criticism from Demski and his supporters, Off Radio Kraków has decided to continue with their experiment. Recently, they released the photos and character descriptions of their three AI presenters.
The first AI host is an acoustic engineering student named Jakub Zieliński (Kuba, 22 years). He will inform the audience about the latest trends in technology and music production.

She is a journalism student and a pop culture enthusiast. Alex Szulc, the third host will talk about culture, society, and issues concerning the LGBTQ+ community.
“This is the first experiment in Poland in which journalists – Emi, Kuba, and Alex – are virtual characters created by AI, and still, they cover topics that affect us all: music, culture, technology, and everyday life,” Off Radio Kraków said on Facebook.
Not the first AI on the radio
In recent years, many radio channels across the globe have tried and tested AI presenters. For instance, in 2020, a company called Futuri Media introduced RadioGPT in the UK, an AI-based radio DJ powered by ChatGPT. Last year in October, Radio City, one of India’s most popular radio stations also launched a new show featuring an AI presenter named SIA.
However, none of these AI presenters stirred controversy. This is probably because they weren’t launched right after the termination of human staff.
What makes this move even more shocking is that Off Radio Kraków is not a private channel. It’s a state-owned station run by taxpayers’ money, according to Demski. His open letter has also caught the attention of ministers in the Polish government.
“Although I am a fan of AI development, I believe that certain boundaries are being crossed more and more. The widespread use of AI must be done for people, not against them,” Krzysztof Gawkowski, deputy prime minister of Poland.
At present, both Demski and Off Radio Kraków remain firm in their positions on the matter. However, this controversy has raised serious questions about how AI can suddenly disrupt the livelihood of people even in the most creative fields.
