Everyone pretty much hates it, its just here is one of the few places online where money and stupidity can’t be waved around frantically to hide that.

Do you realize that social media is a bubble, and whenever you see that “everyone thinks the way I do” it’s likely a result of you having become isolated among a self-selected group of like-minded individuals?
If “everyone pretty much hates it”, why did chatgpt.com become the fifth-most-visited website in existence?
AI bot traffic.
Yeah I’ve never been there. I’ve been to others, but I’ve never been there.
Is that a song? It feels quite close to the song.
Kinda got that “I would do anything for love but I won’t do that” from Meatloaf vibe.
Side note; it really sucks watching him become a hateful bigot considering his audience is like 80% lbgtqia peeps
And does that AI bot traffic not hit all the other sites too? Not trying to be a dick. Occams razer. Sometimes it’s not a conspiracy and things really are as they seem.
Using bots to drive up the traffic of your site is stupidly common, has been a thing even before LLMs, and does not require driving up traffic to every site on the internet. 🤦♂️
Very true but if you look at the top 10 sites online I bet they’re all propping up their traffic metrics with bots which means to some extent it becomes a moot point. Anecdotally in the real world I see the use of AI very prevalent which lends to the fact that it is widespread and universally adopted despite what the bubble here says.
pfft.🤭 You are aware Colleges are sponsoring the bubble too, right?
Because unbelievable amounts of money have been devoted to making AI seem inveitable while these same companies have deeply enshittified traditional search engines?
Because people used to really buy into the hype of computers and a Silicon Valley sense of excitement about possibility?
Big tech is currently brutally strip mining our optimism with one of these earth strippers as if it didn’t leave a barren wasteland behind and wasn’t utterly unsustainable.
It isn’t because ChatGPT is making money that is for sure.
We can be anticapitalists, and still comprehend people love the idea of an extortionist sycophant that answers your every whim and curiosity.
Tis why djinns, fae, and Dolus exists in folklore.
Maybe get off your personal bubble, touch grass, and talk to normies.
