I have also imagined that our AI exo-self will act as agents on our behalf
at volumes and speeds that we currently cannot comprehend.

I find myself more and more simply not commenting on facebook's content -
is it because the content is garbage? Perhaps some.  Is it because bad
faith actors will pounce on the least important words while also missing my
point completely? Yup, that too.  So yeah, there's another reason we won't
actually "talk" directly to each other: talking is more work effort than
the reward.

fwiw: if it's clear (as etiquette seems to have organically established)
that the OP couldn't be bothered to write, I see no reason we (the intended
audience) should be bothered to read.  So maybe your unaugmented self is
signalling safety and trust for this community by investing the time/effort
to write because you intend for us to read you.
