A lot of it is literal chat bots and not even real people

    How long do you think it'll be before it's a network of AI echo chambers in which the majority of interactions are with bots?

    One of the main reasons I left Reddit was because I suspect we’re very close to that exact scenario. I can’t prove it, but many interactions just seem suspicious.

    It looks like most of their non-investor revenue comes from ads and data mining. I assume buyers only want human human views and data. With that in mind, what do you feel like is going on over there, and what will it lead to? Can they get users to pay enough to make an AI fantasy land? Will they defraud advertisers and data miners wi AI astroturf? It's such a weird frontier. I wonder what fresh new horrors will emerge from the dystopia.
