If the dead Internet theory wasn't true before, it sure will be soon.
when AI starts training itself accidentally on AI generated content, we all lose...
To fool us into thinking writing is not AI generated, we will create "human-ifying" filters to the LLM. This will introduce common keystroke, grammar, and spelling issues that surely no automation would ever create on its own.
Soon the writing most vaunted and trusted will be the writing that appears written by a 4 year old with a crayon.
Sigh.
Ironically due to slop I feel like we are regressing as a civilization 2020, want to know how to use Redix for Redis connections in Elixir? Google it and the results were most likely high quality, written by senior engineers who knew what they were doing Today google that, and it will be endless amounts of slop
>> Ironically due to slop I feel like we are regressing as a civilization Well after 50 years we cant reproduce what Apollo did, and I would doubt current students of the same age would handle a 1912 Eight Grade Examination: https://www.bullittcountyhistory.com/bchistory/schoolexam191...
- Apollo had a significantly higher accepted risk. Apollo 1 or 13 would be untenable today.
- The percent of 13-year olds that made it into and through eight grade was significantly smaller in 1912. Your average poor farming kid did not go to eighth grade.
I'll just leave this here: https://developers.google.com/search/help/report-quality-iss...

It's kinda exciting. The social media status quo has its upsides but a lot of downsides. I'm hopeful that the change will be good. We'll have to figure out a way to authenticate the people we're talking to, which will encourage tighter-knit communities.
Serious question: What is this post about and why should we care? It's a repo with 35 stars. Is adding 12,000 posts in a single commit somehow technically difficult or significant?
I suspect we'll address this by just going back to older ranking algorithms for search. We'll go back to the primary signal of good content being links from trusted sources. People gaming the content based algorithms will eventually cause their own downfall.
I got tired of the increasing AI slop in my YouTube Music feed and switched to Deezer a few months ago. Since then, not a single AI artist I've been able to spot. If a relatively marginal player like that can manage it, why can't Spotify or YTM? My suspicion is simply that Deezer actually actually tries.
It's the same problem with Google and search. Kagi and others have demonstrated that you can produce better results with an infinitesimal fraction of the budget, and Google is still plenty competent where they care to be. This won't start to get fixed until they see a financial incentive to do so.
