Woke up from a dream with a thought about dark patterns and LLMs.
If LLMs (as a service) could be normalized and integrated into everything, as is currently in progress, the next step would be to charge tokens to pay for the interactions. After all, it's not really free. That's just the normal progression. Introduce the tech, get people hooked, then make them pay.
Great, now imagine this future state. Every interaction with a computer ends up mediated through a stochastic parrot. Congratulations, everything now has micro-transactions on steroids. Not only does everything you do with tech have micro-transactions, but every interaction with technology is gambling.

Did I #dream of feeding a computer cat snacks? Perhaps.
But it had poor throughput, so they ended up stacking on top of the feeding hole.
