When I was in college some people were really into “intentional media consumption” the idea being that if you should consume media, you should give it your undivided attention or not bother with it at all. At the time, I found this idea annoying and a little pretentious. They claimed things like reality TV and 24 hour news wouldn’t be popular if people only did this.
AI content is making me want to revisit the idea. Maybe do a personal experiment.
What happens if you pay attention?
