LLMs are killing open source just like they're killing online discussion forums.

It's heartbreaking, my two favorite things about the internet are dying off because human interaction can't outscale AI slop.

And most social media, and blogs.

Newspapers are adopting it too, so soon we may see slop dominate even high brow publications.

Feels like a huge shift in human intellectual capabilities. Honestly quite worrying, I don’t think it’s a Luddite position to say that removing writing is removing thinking.
