    yeah, the internet is doomed to be unusable if AI just keeps getting more insidious like this

    yet more companies tie themselves to online platforns, websites, and other models of operation depending on being always connected.

    maybe the world needs a reboot, just get rid of it all and start from scratch

      That would destroy all the old good vintage stuff and leave us with machines that immediately fill the vacant space with pure trash.

      I do kind of feel like this part of the experiment might just be coming to a close.

      There’s no “if AI just keeps getting more insidious”, the barrier for entry is too small. AI is going to keep doing the things it’s already doing, just more efficiently, and it doesn’t matter that much how we feel about whether those things are good or bad. I feel like the things it is starting to ruin are probably just going to be ruined.
