cw: it's about gen AI, this stuff is genuinely disgusting and horrifying
@xerzIt feels like we're approaching the logical conclusion of all the dumbing down of communication that has been happening on the internet for a long time now. Away from quality and towards effortless quantity, because quality is so bothersome to create. Websites, blogs and forums are dying because it's just easier to post on Twitter/Bluesky/Fedi or chat on Discord. Discussions are being replaced by memes or stupid blips of text that ultimately mean nothing. We're communicating, but are saying so little. We were already moving towards human-made slop way before AI entered the field.
