Hot take. Today some people will "ghost" someone by not replying to their messages. But, in the grim dark future, they will instead "chatbot" them by hooking their incoming messages up to a language model. Eg, the LLM may simulate a person gently breaking up with them over time, or who is too busy for another date right now.

Resolves yes if in early 2030 I think this hot take was hot. Resolves no if not. If I am dead the market resolver may substitute their own opinion.

Update 2025-03-12 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Minimal Time Investment:
- The chatbotting alternative must require very little user engagement, paralleling the minimal time investment of ghosting.
- It must fully automate the response process rather than necessitating manual approval or significant intervention.
