I miss Web 1.0, and despair that as #DeadInternetTheory takes hold, we humans find ourselves unable to salvage much worthwhile from the #Web of old.
We’ll have to kitbash something frail and new as (drawing vague analogy from @cstross’ “Accelerando”) we languish in the boonies with discarded instantiations of Lovecraft, watching as something vast, dark, and inscrutable devours the sun to feed its endless, fecund need to vomit forth paperclips.

NBC News: Bot web traffic has overtaken human web traffic, data shows. “Website traffic from AI agents and bots has eclipsed its human-generated counterpart for the first time, according to Cloudflare, an earlier-than-expected milestone that speaks to AI’s rapid advance and impact.”

Promised an age of superconnectivity, we’ve let our shared physical spaces wither, only to find our promised digital commons to be one large billboard increasingly read and created by bots.
.. so begins this thought provoking article..
.. and they go further..Every investor presentation of an AI agent “doing the work of ten analysts” is telling you the same thing: the product is labor replacement. The gentler language (”copilot,” “assistant,” “augmentation”) is marketing. The financial model underneath requires the elimination of human cost centers at civilizational scale

Man, I’m so happy I quit YouTube.
AI slop channels are becoming more common and getting unfair advantages over real creators, thus confirming the dead internet theory. Not only that, but that shit just ruins the platform altogether.
Also, not to mention that there is literally no human moderation left. Dead platform, dead internet.

Your friends, family & immediate circle Might give you “good” information but nothing that will help you surpass them, so that’s immediately an conflict of interest, so your only real option soon, especially if your not gifted with intuition/foresight etc to accurately decipher truth from fiction, is long term sexual discipline in some form
