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

You don’t get to blame AI for this. Reddit was already overrun by corporate and US gov trolls long before AI.
“New poison has been added to arsenic. Should you stop drinking it? Subscribe to find out.”
AI Is Poison
ing Reddit to Promote Products and Game Google With ‘Parasite SEO’FTFY
Ai is a tool. It can be used for good and it can be used for poison. Just because you see it being used for poison more often doesn’t mean you should be against ai. Maybe lay the blame on the people using it for poison

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.
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.
rapture but with technology would be pretty funny
save the good old stuff and burn the rest
This is a direct consequence of Google targeting Reddit posts in its search results. Hopefully forum groups like Lemmy don’t go get buried under a mountain of garbage as well. As long as advertisers are able to destroy public forums and communities with ads, with ad based revenue sites like Google directing who to target. We will always be creating something great while constantly trying to keep advertisers from turning it into a pile of crap.
The history of TV, in reverse. And then forward again.
At first, it was an impossibly expensive medium rules by a cartel of agencies and advertisers. Eventually, HBO comes along and shows you don’t have to just make a bunch of lowest common denominator drivel.
Netflix eventually shows that the internet can be a way cheaper model than cable. Finally, money shows up in the streaming model, remaking advertiser friendly cable in the internet age. All in about 2.5 decades.

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
( ͡°╭͜ʖ╮͡° )
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.

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

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.
“The Matrix”, obviously.
How exactly are they poisoning a pool of toxic waste?
Pissing into an ocean of piss.
Now it’s not only toxic, it’s also acidic and instead of killing you, it’ll also melt you.
Logitech decided to include some AI shit in Logi Options+, I uninstalled that crap ASAP.
I still haven’t seen a use of AI that doesn’t serve state or corporate interests first, before the general public. AI medical diagnostics comes the closest, but that’s being leveraged to justify further staffing reductions, not an additional check.
The AI-captcha wars are on, and no matter who wins we lose.
When googling something, append -site:reddit.com
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?
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.
