The Bigger Threat Than AI Is Already Here

Social Media has side effects, we know them. Here's just a list:

Depression and anxiety; Lower well-being and life satisfaction; Low self-esteem, envy, and feelings of inadequacy; Body dissatisfaction and disordered eating; sleep disruption; compulsive or problematic use; fear of missing out and pressure to remain available; distraction and interference with school or work; displacement of exercise and offline activities; loneliness and social disconnection; cyberbullying; hate, threats stalking; self harm, suicide; sexual grooming; normalization of risky behavior; health misinformation; financial scams, fraud; privacy loss; reputational damage; political hostility and distorted beliefs.

We are trying to legislate it. We are trying to control it. But it's as dangerous as AI and is destroying us just as quickly.
