2nd to last paragraph:
And this isn’t some anti-AI screed — I’m all-in on agentic software engineering!
To be fair the internet was already shit before 2023
Not to the extent it is now courtesy of AI.
I dunno man, in 20-23 all the ravings about Covid being fake or crafted by china and released on purpose and vaccines being a conspiracy to track you by bill gates were by almost all real people, it was pretty shitty even before ai built all the websites, all the posts, all the comments.
That is definitely true, but right now it’s as if that shit has been out in the sun on a hot summer day, right after rain.
