media of “tiktok npc” brings up a laundry list of concerned people talking about the trend. they never thought of this angle.

also, I may have posted in the wrong place, please correct me if I did.

I feel like this trend is mind control, video girls and twitch donations all rolled into one. I notice the body language is stiff, has frequent (orgasm like) forward jerks and twiches also precise and unable to deviate from a defined animation that resets on demand

it also reminds me of what Video girl AI is deconstructing. a being that is para-social to you but still gives off signals of affection. (twitch THOT and Japanese idol stuff)

finally, (and sources are harder to find) notice in this video a forced, self resetting customer service voice. (sadly, i had a hard time finding examples this and this aren’t great)

This just came to me and I have no idea what to do with this new information.

    I will never understand TikTok. Those example videos are so cringy I can’t believe anyone watches them let alone makes them.

      I think they make easy money with that. But I also don’t understand TikTok. But I’m too old to, anyways. I believe TikTok is for the teens.
