"What's so funny mom, another cat video?"

"No I don't watch those anymore, most of them are AI now... I don't like watching a fake cat."

Is this generation bounded, will young people enjoy an artificial reality?

Who knows, but my mom doesn't like it, it actually made her reality less enjoyable.

After turning into a shutin during the shutdowns, my mom is finally starting to go out into the world again because of AI breaking the illusion of the internet having any semblance to reality.

Bless her heart. And mind.

Fun facts: Having a cat that hunts mice can result in toxoplasma infections in those who come into contact with their matter. Also, cat dander can drive many humans into an allegic fit.
