Well that seems better worded than much of reddit.
Dead internet might be true
Something that nobody mentions when they talk about dead internet theory that I think should be talked about is that the worthless engagement trolls that are real people, really do not and should not count as real people. They’re never going to give you worthwhile responses, they don’t add anything to conversations. Unless they see an opportunity to pick a fight they’re probably not even listening to you.
Therefore they’re not really any different than an AI run account that’s not going to acknowledge you. And in some ways they are much worse, despite being technically “real people”.
Huh.
So in my ‘frequently visited’ list, very recently a link to chatGPT has populated.
I’ve poked at a few of the generative ai things, but only the actual chatgpt once, months ago, and have wondered if there’s enough bullshit from reddit to give it enough dings to make the list.
Apparently so
Hi! Made an account over on some other lemmy server, and apparently the guy running it was old, had health problems, and (rightly so) stopped giving two shits about an internet forum.
Reddit sucks enough I’ve tried again. It’s going okay. I don’t give enough of a shit to really figure how the whole lemmy/fediverse works, but at least it aint corpo garbage
Dead Internet been here since 2010 at least.
Be great when the bots permaban other bots.
