Overlooked dangers of AI and social media’s impact on content quality.

😎 Good point, which precisely links to one scarily overlooked danger of AI, which is essentially what fuels social media, even if we might not notice: the content each of us is shown or not shown when opening any of our apps or social media sites is determined essentially by an algorithm that can be labeled as ‘AI’… Besides, all LLMs people (organizations, more specifically) frequently use for posting stuff online are designed to generate blunt, soulless, but perfectly written and polite text. Devoid of anything that, according to a probabilistic algorithm, would be deemed to have any opinion, negative connotation, or just be ‘out of the box.’ In other words, embarrassing and completely expendable pieces of information.

In my opinion, those who have been using the Internet or social media ‘above the average’ (such as many people on Reddit, in comparison to the average LinkedIn user) can identify this kind of ‘content’ as embarrassing or expendable. However, the ‘content creation’ bubble fueled, first by the major social media platforms that thrived thanks to the wild and uncontrolled growth of the digital advertising industry, and now by the availability of generative AI tools, just incentivize this ‘content creation’ thing and pumps the bubble even further. Barriers to entry (to publishing platforms, and to creating ‘content’) are increasingly getting lower, so everybody (specially those who need or seek to make money by having presence on the Internet) is incentivized to create more and more ‘content’, regardless of its quality, authenticity, or relevance.

We easily see that in most posts published in this subreddit, but the most concerning sign is that this subreddit itself also fuels the bubble. Many people really want to be featured here, proving there is no sense of embarrassment in posting expendable or s💥💥💥ty content, partly because we all understand we all are swimming in a massive sea of s💥💥💥ty repetitive ‘content’ fueled by algorithms that decide which kind of s💥💥💥 each of us are willing to consume and, in order to keep us ‘swimming’, the businesses that own the algorithms are very effective in filtering out anything that would awake any sense of embarrassment, regret, or self-awareness in the ‘commodity’ they profit from: people.
