Used to love the gaming and gaming related sub-reddits. Its sad what its become. While /c/gaming (and other related lemmy instances) may not be as active, it feels like it has much more human reactions than reddit at this point.
The text in the link: “So many esoteric questions that seem to only aim to answer the most niche, weird edge cases and obscure topics. Has everything else already been covered and these sorts of questions are all that’s left? Or is someone using the commenters of this sub to train an AI?”
no worries, they’re using ALL of Reddit to train AI, not just your favorite sub
The future is AI shitposting.
Saw a post here on Lemmy the other day where the replies were very obviously from ChatGPT. That’s when I knew the internet was over.
Link?
Just went to look for it, and looks like they were all deleted from that post after I called it out, thankfully.
yeah…its just surreal. I grew up when there was no Internet at all. Now we have bots mining data from a website to get more human-like responses (and more $$). Its a strange world.
Almost makes it useless to bother posting on online forums anymore, if you end up just wasting your time talking to an AI bot, instead of another human.
Which is a weird way lets the 1% win. If the rest of us can’t converse with each other because the ‘virtual town square’ becomes so polluted that meaningful conversation with other humans cannot happen.
