    Not as bad as the AI-generated articles showing up in search results. Some websites I get driven to make absolutely no sense, despite a lot of words being written about all kinds of topics.

    I’m looking forward to the day when “certified human content” is a thing, and that’s all search engines allow you to see.

      The winning search engine will link to useful and relevant content, whether they are ai generated or not.

        Eventually all content will just be AI generated on the fly. No need to keep dumb content on precious storage that could be used to increase model size.

          Eventually all comments will be AI-generated too, carefully crafted to ensure humans follow a paid narrative.

        It’s more likely that the winning search engine will be the one that generates the most ad revenue via clicks.

      They’ll just make certification so expensive only the wealthy will qualify.

      You’ll never hear another perspective again.

        Or, you know, we go back to the time when the news media had real gatekeepers and not just any random jackass could churn out some bullshit copy and broadcast it to the world, let alone have it get published by their local paper.

        It’s nice that the Internet has democratized access to a national or even global audience, but let’s not pretend for a moment that it hasn’t caused a ton of problems in the process such that now many people have no idea of what to believe while others believe whatever they want.

        Yeah, a lot of repair sites come up with pages that have just hundreds of Q&A’s, but often times they don’t make sense or aren’t even related to the topic! Once you realize how much time was wasted on these garbage sites, you don’t even feel motivated to keep looking for answers.

      It’s still pretty easy to tell the difference. You have to have a pretty low level of media literacy to not be able to easily spot it. Unfortunately we already know that most people don’t have a clue when it comes to mass media, and even if they did, we also know that people tend to believe whatever reinforces their priors.
