Sure feels like a key piece of the organic internet is dying. Large amount of content has already moved behind walled gardens. AI is going to kill blogs etc. That doesn't leave much. Bit of niche stuff like lemmy/bluesky/hn I guess? | ||||||||

I think even Lemmy and BlueSky are mostly bots. As much as I loved the anonymous wild west of the internet in my youth, I have come to accept that that is dead, and AI/LLM/bots will finish off its carcass. I foresee a future where humans are verified using some kind of trusted mechanism so that we at least know when a website, content, or comments comes from a real person. I value this far more and I think so do most. | ||||||||

AI is still bad at giving enough information and won't preserve the author's tone. I'll still take searching on Perplexity but reading the details on (for example) https://ridiculousfish.com/blog/ over reading only the dry, possibly wrong summary. Blogs will be ok. Maybe the spam blogs will die, which I'm happy with. |
