The once-prophesized future where cheap, AI-generated trash content floods out the hard work of real humans is already here, and is already taking over Facebook.
Several AI posts have made the rounds on Reddit, but now that Reddit is 90% bots reposting and upvoting content by other bots, I don’t think anyone cares much.
I’m reasonably sure half the stories on subreddits like r/amitheasshole are written by ChatGPT at this point. Doesn’t matter, or course; drama is drama, whether it’s drama from a stranger on the other side of the world or generated by a machine.
I would be surprised if this sort of thing isn’t already happening in reddit too.
