I feel like this is missing the point of the kinds of interactions they're trying to simulate with AI. People like when actual celebrities appear in their interactions (like recording turn-by-turn directions) because it's fun to imagine the celebrity actually saying these things. The variety of stickers, memes, and emojis are fun because you or your friend had to make a creative leap from something they wanted to say to the particular sticker, or even use a common sticker in a creative way. When everything can be generated at a click I suspect the value largely evaporates. Are we all going to be enthralled by sending increasingly specific autogenerated stickers to each other? What is the value of the social interaction when anyone in the chat could have created the hiking "merit badge"? Does it still hold any charm to hear a celebrity's voice when you know it was generated by a computer?
