The webs downfall started with AI. Soon everything will be AI generated, from text posts, code that is shared with "look what i made, its cOoL", videos, podcasts etc. The himan touch will be gone, and new models are then trained on AI generated content, making the feedback loop worse and worse.

It is time for a new web. A new standard, a new everything. A new start without the AI bloat. Either something like this will emerge, or we will loose the web we have.

I've been reading about the web's downfall for way longer than generative AI has existed.

Indeed. But AI is something we have not seen before. It does not gatekeep, it devours and destroys.

		Yeah, I tend to agree, just trying to check my assumptions. There was always some newfangled thing killing the web every other time too. I would also say that those pronouncements of doom were not necessarily wrong, but that it's been more of a long decline than a fall. I think my expectation is for that to continue.
