Don't know a lot of gamers who like using 3 em dashes in their Youtube comment (there are more signs, this is just the most obvious).

Watched a video game review of a medium-sized channel on Youtube, and the comment section is full of obviously fake comments.

Reddit and Youtube comments have gotten so much worse. Dead Internet Theory is becoming a reality. We are cooked if we do not find a good solution fast.

Not being able to pick the model is bothering me way more than I thought it would. The different models had very different use-cases for me and so far I like my own choices more.

My generation is witnessing even more change and I hope the progress accelerates and the next generations will surpass us.

Sometimes I think about the fact that my parents were born before the internet was invented and then my brain struggles to understand how much has changed in one generation.

Apparently, we are back. I have just received some comically late reminder emails for events that already happened earlier today.

One of the best engineers I know just said he'd rather stop working during the outage than go back to 'Boomer coding'.

Ok, good to know that I am not going crazy and that I do not have to change internet providers. Was worried for a second.

10/ Both ecosystems will matter. The danger is letting the second one wither before it’s really born. Transition will suck.

7/ What that could look like:.- Proof of Personhood rails like World ID .- Invite-only platforms of trust that scale carefully.- AI models that discern and remove AI content.

5/ I expect a split online world: .• Hybrid zones where AIs create hyper-personal entertainment for humans.• Sanctuaries where every interaction is verified to be from a human.

3/ State-backed bot farms, GenAI content mills, and cute AI avatars already drown out real voices in our feeds.
