I'm wondering if Reddit will just be a place for AI/bots to create/replicate content, and the people (read: "normies"/people who don't care what social media website they use as long as they can consume content) there will be interacting with said bots. All that just to drive traffic and appease shareholders.

Not sure if I'm just paranoid or if this is the case. I know that there are cases like this, but I wonder how deep it goes, or if it has been like that for a long time.

Wellp, long gone are the days of me typing a question and ending it with "Reddit", now it's 100% Lemmy/Kbin/Mastodon.
