Search engines are basically 90% blogspam promotion machines at this point, and the blogspam churning engine is going to become completely autonomous. The tools we're relied on for nearly three decades now are going to become a big virtual tug of war between machine-learning-guided SEO systems and machine-learning-guided ad revenue systems.

Every single anonymous interaction is going to be suspect. The next dogwhistling fucking cryptonazi groyper you run into is probably not even going to be a human being. Machine learning is probably going to elect the next US president. Eventually the medium will become so polluted that we will have to go back to doing everything in person.

Thank you for reading my doompost

    I've got some bad news for you: that's been true for a while now.

    Personally, I've always kind of wanted to do a leftist version of this, essentially a 'news' website that aggregates articles and automatically rewrites them to be from a leftist lens. Cheap and easy Facebook agitprop.
