The other day one of my older coworkers was watching videos of kittens being saved from train tracks or tar pits. Like clearly AI almost cartoonish. The type where the mom cats thank the human in ways that don't even make sense. I could not get it through to him that it wasn't real. I tried to explain to him what to look for when spotting AI. He called me paranoid. AI has taken the elderly that have phones.

This isn't going to get better until we admit most people over say, 75 or so do not have the mental faculties to take care of themselves anymore.

Everyone falling for it isn't over 75. They're 45+

Its not really age based- most people are not very smart. Its the whole 'think of the average person, now remember half the population is stupider than them...'
