@danielgibert@mastodon.online @pluralistic@mamot.fr Tron was absolutely that, but the "services" have been centralised for at least the past 20 years - the big five, essentially - and the dependency is already well established.

@cybervegan@autistics.life @pluralistic@mamot.fr Yup, but now we are on the next stage. Streaming services are being consolidated by company absorption. And both Elon and Altman have been heralding the concept of the "superapp" to reunite all services under the same umbrella. And absolutely the whole GenAi model is based on users computers doing absolutely nothing by their own. Ai and Superapps area really the reincarnation of the Master Control Program. Makes me feel sad (and rebelious)
