If AI floods every single comment section, to the point the humaness of social media has been completely removed (which it is reaching that imo), how would it effect our consumption of it?

Looking at instagram, my feed is mostly meaningless garbage (which might be my fault to an extent), but what it has meant I simply don’t find any reason to go onto it at all. Would this happen on mass if/when AI is so prevalent (lets say a 9:1 bot commenter to human commenter ratio), that we simply have no interest in it anymore?

Gross.

I continue to have my own little cognitive dissonance about the Fediverse:

The world needs more FOSS and information needs to flow in a decentralized, democratic kind of way.

Howeverrrrr… Lemmy is awesome for we few that it clicks with. For the good of the users and especially the volunteer admins who run our instances, I am glad Lemmy is not the big glowing target that reddit is.

Maybe we just hang out and keep the lights on no matter whether it’s for occasional lost Linux users or for when mainstream folks decide to ditch oligarch-tech en masse.

This person is late to the game. Reddit has been like this for years.

Oh, this is great.

Users noticed that Google had too much bad results because of SEO and spam flooded search results.

Users added “reddit” to their search terms, so they get results from reddit, where spam and astroturfing were… there but manageable.

Now the SEO people and advertisers target reddit with AI tools, until it is so enshitificated that we have to find something else (rinse and repeat)

“No, don’t leave, we just finished saturating the space with ads!”

“Why do you think we leave?”

In line of SEO, it makes me think, with how the fediverse works, it could end up being a search engine of its own. Including, I may add, for external contents as tracking bots are made. Quite an interesting realization.

Reddit right now is banning any criticism of ICE. Reddit covered up for Ghislaine’s account (maxwellhill), even though they’ve attended very public events with her as CEO Ellen Pao revealed, and they have narcissistic megalomaniac psychopath Jibberish (deliberately mistyping) who has trained decades on how to be the best psychopath they can be on social manipulation MMOs also heading and manipulating their “conservative” subreddit, who subscribing to also seems to be a flag within the system to begin showing you subs engineered to manipulate you with their messaging. Oh, and all the other non-conspiracy theory stuff, which there is plenty of.

In any case, fuck spez.

Plot twist: They did not build shit, the text is generated by AI, and whatever they do is still done by third country workers.

The linkedin writing format must be banned, exhausting, unreadable and way too self important. It’s not a haiku write like a normal person you lunatic. Also these bots are destroying public forums, don’t expect any praise from me.

here is to hoping that lemmy never grows

Reddit is the new Facebook. Kids don’t think it’s cool so they avoid it. Got this first hand. It’s got a big userbase so it’ll take a while to topple, but they probably already know this and will squeeze everything out of it to the last drop.

It used to be a place I could turn to to get some real reviews, in sofar that it ruined google, and now I can’t trust any of Reddit’s content anymore because of things like the OP.

reddit banned me, so i upvoted this post

Anyone that works in marketing needs to be flogged in the streets for their crimes.

God, I just hate the way these people fucking talk. Everything is a bulleted list and sentence fragments.

What a self report. This guy is complicit in turning the age of information into the age of propaganda.
