I stopped after reading the opening words of the first section.

That's garbage AI, and it's on the Internet where Google AI can "learn" from it.

Coin planchet errors — this is the first thing that the coin price checker identifies. It is the foundation of the coin that sets the tone for everything else. Therefore, it is important to understand what it is and how it works.


LOL. My favorite section about planchet errors is the one simply titled "Wrong".

Good. We went through a brief few decades where the Internet was a treasure trove of useful information shared by benevolent humans to help other humans. Now it is being corrupted by automated slop that is largely based on stealing the intellectual works of the aforementioned benevolent humans without their permission or even acknowledgement. The faster the slop generators eat their own tail into universally recognized uselessness, the better.

AI slop.

And at less than 500 words, it's not really an article.

This is the future of what's become of the internet: monetization & artificial/fake/AI "content".

It's hard to imagine how desperate for money/subs/likes/SEO people must be to actively do this sort of thing.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going hide from modern society in my library.

It isn't, though. People will shift back over to human-produced content.

The oldest generation falls for phone scams sometimes, but few people younger. The next oldest generation falls for email and text message phishing scams sometimes, but few people younger. The next oldest generation falls for deepfakes, but few people younger. The youngest generations will have an immune response to AI generated content and skip it instinctively. It won't be a problem for them.

I love the optimism and I hope you will be proven right! I am a bit more pessimistic. You need common sense/critical thinking to do that and if that decreases, how are they going to understand a deepfake? Or, taking a different angle, if they lack knowledge of the subject matter, how are they going to understand that something sounds fishy? Like a video of a particular politician advocating for the opposite of what they were actually for in their times? Plus AI generation is probably going to get even better at camouflaging itself in the coming year.

Let's hope I'm wrong

I find it dubious that a Harvard grad would allow their name to be on something like that.
Doesn't add up.

I did a basic background check and I don't think Laura Bennett exists in the real world.
