“Oh, you think enshittification is your ally? You merely adopted the enshittification. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t see efficient code until I was already a distribution model, by then it was nothing to me but blinding! The intentional bias and IP infringements betray you because they belong to me!” - Chat GPT, from the hit film Batman and Robert(1966), directed by Tim Hortons
Something can always be made shittier, and shittiness is probably a continuum, so if we define enshittification as merely increasing shittiness then no, something can still be enshittified even when it is already shit.
Wow, the AI industry smashing the enshitificstion speed run.
Doesn’t it have to hit a phase where it wasn’t shit before enshitification can happen?

Hmm… interesting question.
