yeah, the internet is doomed to be unusable if AI just keeps getting more insidious like this

yet more companies tie themselves to online platforns, websites, and other models of operation depending on being always connected.

maybe the world needs a reboot, just get rid of it all and start from scratch

That would destroy all the old good vintage stuff and leave us with machines that immediately fill the vacant space with pure trash.

I just consider any comment after Jun 2023 to be compromised. Anyone who stayed after that date either doesn’t have a clue, or is sponsored content.

Generative AI has really become a poison. It’ll be worse once the generative AI is trained on its own output.

When the internet is eventually oversaturated with smartbots, where will the humans go.

The usefulness of Captchas is being destroyed by “AI” too. And ironically they were used to train certain types of Machine Learning.

To a new social media platform where you have to send in a DNA sample to create an account.

That creates a market for morticians and midwifes creating preauthenticated accounts to sell to bot farms

Synchronous spaces.

Social VR does not have a lot of the ills of social media. You only have to deal with people much like you would IRL.

Peer-to-peer systems? Systems where you have to do physically be at the location to get data maybe, so cyber cafe like things. Or back to the old system and go to the regular bars, repair cafés or hobby places.

I appreciate the mostly benign neglect we had for awhile. Now that they’re paying attention it’s just all bad. Or would be, if I was there. HA.

I was about ready to downvote out of pure annoyance lol.

Yeah this isn’t new.

Ever wonder why you are such a fan of shitty played out franchises?

Logitech decided to include some AI shit in Logi Options+, I uninstalled that crap ASAP.

You don’t get to blame AI for this. Reddit was already overrun by corporate and US gov trolls long before AI.

This shit isnt new, companies have been exploiting reddit to push products as if they’re real people for years. The “put reddit after your search to fix it!!!” thing was a massive boon for these shady advertisers who no doubt benefitted from random people assuming product placements were genuine.
