I don’t think this is anywhere near the “endgame”, it’s a blip on the way to something way worse.
And politics
Oh hey look it’s the perfect tool for revolting pedos to pretend to be preteens so they can blend in with their prey.
And AstroTurfing political engagement online.
Maybe creating an avalanche of fake kids is the better way to stop the pedos. If they can’t know if the one they are talking to is a fake the real ones (if they are still there) are safer.

Frankly the “pay someone to talk about how awesome your product is” brand of ads has always been kinda creepy, so this is par for the course.
someone pops up on a webcam and starts talking about a product
Normalize ignoring anything you aren’t looking at on purpose.
I think this is good, from an accelerationist perspective, for getting people off TikTok and social media. The more dead internet there is, the more they will hopefully come back offline
I think this is already happening in China
This is already probably pretty widespread in general. With the absolutely absurd amount of AI slop being thrown out on the web, and the insane amount of available training material for tiktok-slop…
Also, low effort tiktok-trend astroturfing videos are probably some of the easiest AI videos to mass generate. You need exactly zero original content, have massive amounts of training data available, and can easily make a prototype video that the AI can modify.
It sucks that this technology is being used this way. It could be incredible for things like D&D where you can swap your likeness/voice for that of your character.
wtf is UGC and do I care? Probably not.
Looked it up; user generated content

No one. They were born psychopaths.
Anytime I see an ai ad for a company, I know to avoid
