"Become a master of meaning," these are the words that kept running through my head as I read your post. I've heard this phrase from Tony Robbins, and it has helped me tremendously. You're right, social is run by bots and soon all kinds of AI agents. Website traffic is plummeting. Cloudflare has launched a program (still in beta) that would reward web owners when AI crawls their website. On the other hand, I applaud businesses that incorporate small cafes into their stores (see Ralph Lauren), as people are realizing that there's more to life than showcasing your breakfast on a social media platform and accumulating likes.
As we're reminded that life doesn't have to be super complicated and sophisticated, we'll witness more and more people reclaim their sovereignty and bathe in the very fundamentals of existence. To each their own path and decision; in the grand scheme of things, there is no right or wrong anyway.
And, WOW! Model strangers is wonderful. Thanks for sharing, Eric.
"Become a master of meaning..." Hmm, I'll have to think about that today. Social media is getting worse and worse. I think the algorithms have been what has killed engagement. The platforms have become so greedy and focused on selling us things that they've taken the "social" part out of the equation.
I agree so much with that second paragraph! Since the pandemic our lives have steadily become smaller and maybe contentment will happen if we come to a place of acceptance of that.
I absolutely love that channel. I could watch it for hours. I'm glad you're enjoying it! Thanks Krisz!
