I would have guessed that we passed that point 4 or 5 years ago.

What bothers me is how dumb some of them seem. They’ll just keep requesting the same pages over and over again like they are stuck in some loop. Even if they are getting error codes like 403 or 404. You basically have to block them completely or they’ll just bog down your servers.

Why though?
Whatever is the point?

Driving dead internet theory into dead internet reality.
As humans encounter each other less and less on the internet, the less they will use it socially and recreationally.
The team that made EverQuest ran into some unique challenges when their game exploded in popularity. They ran into issues of server over population, performed „server splits“ to relieve pressure and while some people quit, the game remained successful.
That same team later developed another MMO that seemed well planned on the surface, but wound up flopping when they had the opposite problem. The world was too large. Players did not encounter each other frequently enough. The need for human interaction was not being met. This caused players to quit in droves, compounding the problem, until the game flopped completely.
As bots inundate every single service real humans try to interact with, the exact same thing will start to happen.
It’s already happening with Reddit.

I can’t help but laugh that people think this only means bots in comments. Truly a Reddit-centric take.
Majority of non-human traffic is e-commerce, shopping, packet exchange, handshakes, etc. It’s not about people replying in comments. As more of this created and automated, that increases the traffic.

Funny if bots start arguing with each other 😆

Okay. Hear me out here.
Why don’t we all just collectively stop listening to tech bros heavily invested in AI who predict the future of the world, when their predictions always stand to benefit them?
It’s not like we go and ask a crazy gold digger if he thinks he will find gold in the future and then publish his thoughts without a second thought.

I assume this is going to send their stock to the moon? It seems like every bad (for society) piece of AI news makes these billionaires even richer.

Just shut it all down including reddit. I’ll go back to making snarky comments to my local newspaper by post!

Cloudflare, is that the one that makes me do captchas because I use a VPN? Don’t they think everyone is a bot already?

The Internet has been such a huge disappointment. Can’t wait to see how bad AI is.

How can humans profit from online bots? Come on people, let’s figure it out.

Holy shit it gets even worse.

All these data centres are going to be for feeding bots 24/7. Talk about a good use of energy.

Twitter is already mostly run by bots now trying to farm as much engagement as possible using the worst possible imaginable contents you can think.

I wonder how many bot arguments are in the wild.

Nonsense. This has been the case for a long time now. We’re just being picky about the word “bot,” here.

How about no fucking internet.

Dead internet is real. There will be a future market for truly human made content, and the cringiest early youtube shit will be worth a fortune just because it isnt AI.
