I’ve wondered about this.
I cant believe that somehow everything except lemmy got infected. There must exist some ai comments here but i have not noticed them…
Of course its better not do dwell on this to much or paranoia quickly sets in.
Or maybe even take a step back. Dead internet theory is real and we're living it, but just because the main subreddits and FB are ai schlock doesn't mean Lemmy is the only 'real' place.
I feel the hardest part is keeping my senses about me when I argue with hivemind mentality. You will probably get a feeling from my writing, that I too embraced the hive speak and mind. And this is where the bots get the everyperson. Bots speak in hivemind and meme format. I think this whole kerfuffle will do wonders for real online discussion, as low-effort discussions will be dismissed as white noise.
Ngl, that last paragraph felt like some pseudo-prodigal word vomit that only an AI would produce.
you sus af
Exactomundo!
The only reason that last paragraph ain't outright ai garbage (besides my elegant use of 'everyperson', mind you) is that there is a semi-original though buried at the end of it. This paragraph is odacious, so point taken.
