AI Is Killing The Internet's Buisness Model
(www.techspot.com)
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
To be fair, this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Because the current business model is mass surveillance, selling people's data, harvesting every tiny bit of user attention and manipulate them, making everything an outrage, confining people into filter bubbles, endless annoyances and enshittification... I wouldn't make me super sad if that were to die... So if it's just the title... go ahead. Sadly there is more to the story. And also Cloudflare isn't exactly healthy for the internet. (And their bot detection doesn't work very well in practice.)
Cloudflare is stellar. I just bought tickets to SeaWorld and my mobile phone was successfully blocked from being able to open the automatically emailed link with the ticket pdf in it. Top notch security.
