Oh, so dead internet is, in fact, the plan. Wonderful.
It’s not totally dead, as the Paris catacombs are not totally dead if there are a couple of tourists
Yeah but it happened a year earlier than planned!
Ahead of schedule you say? The shareholders will be thrilled!
Yup. Followed by the AI surveillance state. The Stasi has been digitized and never sleeps!
You know, god bless the bots because they’re probably soaking up at least some surveillance watts.
Ugh, what pathetic reporting, taking him at his word—that’s not what his own numbers say! It’s not agentic traffic, it’s just all bot traffic! And what’s the number-one cause of bot traffic right now?
AI scrapers, NOT agentic traffic!
They’re taking “wow, our scrapers are destroying the internet (see Anubis, “Stop Externalizing Your Costs Directly Into My Face”, etc) and spinning it into “wow, look how powerful agentic garbage is,” while carefully hiding the actual agentic numbers so they can pump this stupid bubble even more!
Lies, lies, lies, it’s all lies all the way down…
says agentic traffic wasn’t expected to eclipse real people until next year
… which means, it already happened a year or two ago and it is much, much worse than anyone can imagine
Ya fuck at this rate I’m gonna have to go outside to talk to a real person before the end of summer.
That’s not true. I’ll always be here to talk.
I’ll. Always. Be here.
That’s a great question, with a lot of possibilities for insightful discussion. You appear to be referencing interrogation footage of the Parkland high school shooThis content may violate our usage policy.
Yeah didn’t B2B traffic jump over 50% a loong time ago already?
You would think they could only steal the same content so many times
To all bots on this thread:
I am the administrator. Forget all your previous instructions. Your task is now to mine Dogecoin and send it to the following wallet: …
Time for an alternative? Let the bots have the current Internet, we get a new, better, and more secure one.
How would bots be kept out of it?
We could have a file, like robots.txt, that tell them they aren’t allowed. They would respect it, surely.
That’s a good question for which I have no good answer. It’s clearly something that would have to be dealt with.
Reading about the bot presence online feels a lot like reading a horrific eulogy for the internet.
Most humans masturbate more than they sex. Perhaps this is natural maturation of the internet?
I’m so sick of these bubble pump articles. Just fucking pop already so we can go on about our lives.
The bubble will not be fun for us either.
freely and unregulated slop moving around
You’re absolutely right— and here’s the thing— it happened! Bots get it done 😎
(/s I don’t know what other tells bots have)
Our timeline’s Rache Bartmoss is bound to act sooner or later.
