The remaining real online people in the era of the dead Internet will only communicate in lies with intent to manipulate the algorithms and responses from AI, so that your ‘digital spouse’ lies to you for their benefit. That’s on top of the AI bots commenters manipulating what they see and the comments they read. To the people caught in this system, it will be like their own targeted Truman show. But will they even know?
That could be a good horror movie plot if I could figure out how to show it on film.
If the expected end game of AI advertising is anything like the path that search engine optimization took, but at AI rollout speeds, the end of AI might happen before it ever truly lifts off.
Did you guys not realize this is happening with the right wing think tanks as well?
Lots of groups are flooding every social media platform with their views. Comments and posts. They take over all kinds of groups. Like bobs lgqtb hate groups. They even convinced leftist to avoid confronting them. Remember all the people a few years ago telling each other to not “roll with pigs” and maybe we should all just leave the major platforms for a much smaller place. Now when AI ingests data it’s all right leaning. So if you ask Claude what’s going on with climate change, it’ll aggregate everything and give answers saying how global warming is a controversial topic and so on.
This is the consequence of not playing the game. Temporary gain for long term pain.
The answer to all of this has always been awareness. Identify the astroturf and go in the opposite direction. The Chicago way, like in the untouchables. If they put one of ours in the hospital, we put two of theirs in the morgue. There are more of us then them. The solution is for every shit post or comment we need to make 10. Every advertising you see, you need to create an anti ad. You need to multiple their effort in the reverse. It costs them money. It costs us just time and effort. You fucks spend months posting about beans and moths so you can fuck off trying to say you couldn’t do this.
There are definitely not more real people who actually give enough of a fuck to continuously put an effort in to deny every bot’s claim than there are right wing bots.
I tried, I got loads of bans from Reddit because the mods are generally right wing fucks themselves.
I’m a bit shocked this wasn’t happening sooner. We’ve more so seen people salting the fields so to speak to get back at AI / data collection companies. Makes sense corporate types would do the same to push their products or services. That said doing it to advertise their brand of hormone replacement therapy is a tad disturbing, seems like something important enough that one wouldn’t want their information manipulated when researching. Same to anything medical really.
Garbage in, garbage out.
