I'm convinced that the internet is mostly dead at this point. Sites like reddit or this one don't ask people for their identity. Nothing on here could be real and we'd be none the wiser. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Product and service reviews are completely useless now too, and have been for a while. Restaurant ratings are pure noise, everything is 4 stars and there is absolutely no correlation to the quality of food or service. None of it is real. It's bleak out there, on the internet. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I can't tell if your comment is LLM generated or not. What's the point of even reading comments anymore I should just ask claude what it thinks. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

If I can't tell the difference, why would it matter? The problem is when I can eventually tell the difference. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I feel like it will only get worse, too. I don't want to waste my time responding to a bot so as a human it makes me less likely to participate. I want a social media again where I actually just see my friends (my friends use Discord for this and it works okay). | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The internet was dead before you or I or anyone else even realized that it could die. We're just zombies stumbling around in this undead wasteland, going through the motions that we used to do when it was still alive. Ironically, the thing that killed it were the tools people employed to keep the robots out. Once those were in place, no one could ever follow in Google's footsteps, which meant search could never work again not even in theory. And the same robots that people were murdering the internet to keep out were welcomed in through the service entry and started writing all the content: now not only could search never work again, but there wouldn't be anything worth searching for. And if all of that wasn't enough to really depress you, there's the fact that social media made it impossible to ignore that none of us like each other very much. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Social Media, Especially Reddit, is getting worse by the minute, vibe coding spam, AI bots filling subs with AI garbage links & comments, mods calling it quit because of the amount of junk they have to deal with it. IT IS EVERYWHERE... AI music on Spotify, AI pull requests on github, AI videos on youtube,... it's gonna kill the internet... | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I might be a dog for all you know (though I neither confirm nor deny this), but I assure you I'm real. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
