Imagine a world where making an AI Avatar of your choosing in all its perfection or perfect imperfection - whatever is the statistically most popular on the "charts" - is as easy as swiping on Tiktok. Imagine a world so hyper competitive, where the most popular avatars are the "celebrities" and "stars" of our day, where every action and reaction and thought and word is chosen by AI ahead of time, and the only competitive edge one has is their ability to produce the most valuable of prompts. Imagine this hellscape that is enabled through the altering of reality itself; through robots and synthetics that when combined with enough prescription drugs and AR glasses and brain chips and whatever else becomes not only a facade on top of reality but usurps reality itself. The unstable nature of the human psyche itself will crack under the weight of this Hellish Paradise, it will freeze, become unable to cope with perfection, the people will retreat inward unable to muster the courage to make a mistake and without mistakes the species will cease to progress and evolve and will simply stagnate and die out a slow pitiful death.

Will we ever have a decade-defining sex icon like this again?

Everyone knows that most people - the bottom 95% of the population - are often if not always "faking it to make it", they have no real idea what they are doing at any given moment and are just bullshitting their way through life and faking it to make it. That's all fine and dandy but what happens when AI becomes so pervasive in human society that suddenly everyone can put on a show of perfection - true perfection that makes an Instagram Model and her filters envious - I am talking about offloading all or near all of ones thoughts and actions to an algorithm, to essentially become a Human guided bot that is perceived from the outside as an "E-Celeb" or whatever other construct holographic or even real to the touch they may be. I predict a future where everything is so hyper-manufactured that reality itself is significantly altered due to this, especially when you throw in technologies like AR glasses, brain chips, etc. If one doesn't like their reality they will simply craft a new one as they see fit, internet celebrities and their quarrels will be entirely manufactured, online debates and happenings will be AI generated from start to finish, this will culminate in whatever the "current thing" is and the "current thing" will hardly ever change because it will be the culmination of the AI Crucible, it will be statistically, algorithmically, exactly what the majority of everyone everywhere wants and for the outliers they will have their own realities to live in. This will cause a shrinkage in human innovation and imagination - I call it the Confidence Cascade Failure and it will result in the extinction of our species.

Even in an avatar world I'd still be a low tier loser

Everyone will be perfectly imperfectly perfect and the outliers who refuse to become "current thing" will have their own unique and individual worlds in which they are the center, bottom, or top of; the world will form and adhere to the wishes of the user so much so that it kills the entire species with simulated perfection in both physical and mental realms; obviously in such a world religion would be non-existent if not near non-existent; except possibly as something to be fetishized to live out fantasies - A secular hellish paradise.
