I think 100% of the books I've read in the last year have been recommendations from friends. This is kind of annoying as I'd like to be able to give them recommendations in return, but ... limited time.

I wish that I could doomscroll literature instead of short videos, but the economics apparently don't work out.

I used to recommend books to friends generally when I was young, then I started getting really specific about what books to recommend to whom as I got older. I wonder what stuff like this (and AI in general) will cause more of?
