I hadn't seen that article by Kahneman, but I would agree with him.
Unlike the man in the video, I say it's a bad thing. Everything becomes a substrate for artifice and chicanery. Everyone must be pretending to have the time of their life, and they are too busy pretending to have fun to actually let go and enjoy themselves. The girl about to bang you is taking a selfie of herself instead of nuzzling up to you (this happened to me recently, prebang, and I did bang her).
