Personally I love this new AI voice content booms. My favorite is the AI presidents discussing/playing/rating stuff [1], Attenborough narrating warhammer [2]. While slightly silly, I think in future people might start to take internet way less serious when you can literally make things up. Which I think is a good trend. People getting depressed or so consumed by the internet culture that they loose all interest in the real world have been a trend I've disliked. We might be just going back to the time of early, anonymous internet forums time where most people used to it just didn't take it too seriously, and a lot of communities were closed /invite only.

> Slippery slope I say this. Or humans need to chill out, realize we're a bunch of primates on a space rock, and stop being so offended and afraid. So what if we use politicians, world leaders, and celebs? This is no different than photoshop. You know what's funny? [this video] [link] Or something along those lines: [link] This is even funnier to me because I have no idea what any of this means. Kids love this stuff, though, and they're wildly creative. We're just getting started with the creative Cambrian explosion. We have yet to hit the inflection point.
