  I’m not a huge reader so no, I haven’t, but it sure does sound interesting. As long as we have shitposts tho I think the internet is not yet prone to becoming entirely useless, at least for now.

    Yeah, not yet; hopefly not ever. In the book the tech was eventually used by governments to rewrite everything on the web to be in line with their propaganda so anything posted would be rowlitten multiple times by bots.

      Pretty much right out of 1984.

      Day by day and almost minute by minute the past was brought up to date. In this way every prediction made by the Party could be shown by documentary evidence to have been correct, nor was any item of news, or any expression of opinion, which conflicted with the needs of the moment, ever allowed to remain on record. All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary. In no case would it have been possible, once the deed was done, to prove that any falsification had taken place.

      Ok but if this thing happened right now that would be pretty good for us actually. If LLMs rewrite everything, this only leaves LLM output as training data for the next LLMs, leading to relatively fast model collapse, and basically popping the AI bubble with TNT.
