Signs You Are Living in an Information Crap-Pocalypse

If you think this is pessimistic, the worst is yet to come. The AI/ML genie is out of the bottle and the s/n ratio is only going to get worse.

>Of course, this can’t go on forever. Eventually people abandon those polluted streams. That’s what will happen after the Age of Information crashes.

No, this Age of "Information" (for want of a better word) has changed the meaning of language itself (and hence our thoughts themselves) so that words like "Truth", "Trust", "Information", "Right/Wrong" etc. no longer mean what they used to. Everything is in the service of Power and Money. Think of it as "Newspeak" in a different form and amplified beyond belief. Everything has changed/will change further and the sane/rational amongst us will just have to find ways to cope with it.
