Already Falling for AI

The author received a video of a child with a dog that deeply moved them, leading them to immediately share it with their daughter. However, the daughter responded by warning that it was AI-generated content, meaning something that never actually happened, causing them to cry over something fictional. The author considered the daughter's response almost philosophical.

Shortly after, the author saw a video of someone cutting their own hair with scissors and almost commented thinking the person was showing a lot of courage. Upon further investigation, they discovered it was just another social media trend, not a real video.

In the comments on this trend, the author found an expression that perfectly summarizes the situation: "Already Falling for AI," indicating how people are increasingly being deceived by AI-generated content that appears extremely realistic.

The article was exclusive to subscribers, with a link for full registration, suggesting that the rest of the content further explored this reflection on the growing ability of AI to deceive viewers.
