  • AI’s propensity towards hyper-individualism. don’t people listen to podcasts to learn something about the world outside of themselves, to hear someone else’s story or perspective? this need for content so specifically geared towards oneself just shouts “main character syndrome”

    also I just can’t imagine how an AI-generated podcast based on your vacation pics would even be interesting to listen to. why would you want to hear a fake person relay your own memories back to you based on something as superficial as a photograph? surely your actual lived experience is deeper and more valuable than what some algorithm assumes from a bunch of pixels

    and of course it will inevitably say something wrong, probably often. maybe the AI identifies a fruit stand in your photos and the artificial host says something about how strong the smell of strawberries was, except you don’t actually remember smelling strawberries. maybe it’s been awhile so you think "hm I guess it did smell like strawberries " and the AI just implanted a false memory. disturbing stuff lol
