One word: spam.

AI has absolutely revolutionized spam and spam detection. Spammers can now generate absolutely unheard of amounts of complete bullshit. And on the other side, spam detection services and algorithms are getting better and better at detecting it, sorting it, and filtering it based on user preferences. Tons of people are enjoying openly AI generated content; and the content that isn't enjoyed by people is instead enjoyed by other AI bots, driving up the engagement rates. That behavior too though is being monitored by other AI, which then prompts spammers to improve their AI so they can avoid that AI and get their stuff seen by engagement AI.

So we have server farms full of computers that are making complete shit that is then thoroughly enjoyed by other server farms full of computers to drive up engagement numbers while still other server farms full of computers are working to detect the fraud and remove it.

Meanwhile, in the real world, we're still hurtling towards climate collapse. But that's okay, we're finally looking into building nuclear reactors again. To power more data centers.

The future is fucking stupid.

AI is spam itself. If you go reddit, you can see lot of bots working for an Agenda.
