Here's my thought process on this unfortunate reality of forced ai slop. I'm older and remember the old web that was great. The decline started around 2011 with more and more ads then SEO manipulation of searches, Google making that all possible for SEO so they could get richer then 2018 racketeering took off online then Covid happened which elevated racketeering then the final nail came with the ban of Adobe Flash player. The claims about security was bulls**t. Now Google, Microsoft and Apple have total control. Meming ai generated crap at least gives some words to a picture that fits a stream for memes that has entertainment to it instead of just blank ai content in our faces. Kind of like self-medicating. If a redwood a lumberjack cut down fell on a semi truck it would certainly be an epic job fail which fits the stream. π€·ββοΈπ
