Replying to Avatar Den Yellek

Increasingly I am being confronted with AI generated garbage flooding the internet.

Even my work inbox has been infected with poorly generated AI images taking up half the email.

The internet is increasingly feeling like a lonely place. As if I am the only human faced with a wall of generatively created "content". The comment section no longer a small window into another humans mind but instead a transformer regurgitating words hoping to capitalise on engagement or sway opinion.

Maybe this will push people offline but the more realistic outcome is we all end up as lonely humans in a crowded theater of bots.

The Dead Internet Theory.

I think this plays partly with why I enjoy Nostr so much. It's a throwback to what the Internet was, before the big social media companies are everything.

Smaller places like nostr are better.

But the dead internet is leaking. Starting to feel more like "The Dead World Theory" as the AI generation leaks into the real world. Primarily seeing it now through advertising but it will spread everywhere.
