Is it a genuine birthday greeting if you just let AI do the job?
- Brian_K_White 3mo agothat was their point
- socalgal2 3mo agoWas it a genuine birthday greeting when you bought a card? Or used an online card? I don’t really see the difference. The point is you thought of them, not the actual words
- actionfromafar 3mo agoWith AI you don't have to think about them.
- cheschire 3mo agoGreat business opportunity there. Make a free service that sends AI generated birthday notes to people. All the user has to provide is the other persons birthday. People cannot be relied upon to provide accurate birthdays but nobody would suffer the social faux pas of an incorrect birthday congrats note. Nor would they send it to a spam catching email, but rather are guaranteed to send it to a regularly checked address. They know the persons birthday after all. You can then sell high quality birthday information correlated to contact information to ad agencies. Fuck this current internet. So dystopian.

- bluGill 3mo agoI used to write birthday emails to my friends years ago. I quit when calendar systems started automatically promoting me when birthdays happened. Remembering someone's birthday no longer seemed like a significant effort on my part and so it wasn't worth the bother since it didn't say as much.
- alex43578 3mo agoFor 90% of birthday greetings, are they ever genuine? Like seriously, outside of some close friends and family, are you sitting there deliberating over a message for your coworker Steve in the Slack chat or a cousin you barely talk to outside of a birthday and Christmas card?
