If you want a vision of the future, imagine spam bots filling the net with appealing nonsense -- forever.
Isn't this the case in Neal Stephenson's Anathem where truth on the net is hard to come by because programs keep pumping out plausible nonsense?
The same thing happens in Vernor Vinge's near-future novels; the "Friends of Privacy" put out fake personal information everywhere to obfuscate things.
Makes me suspicious if anyone on the net would pass the Voigt-Kampff test.
Let me tell you about my mother.
I was wondering about that too - would the two opposing bots slug it out until the end of time (or the end of Twitter at least)?
It really is bizarre to think of two machines sat arguing with each other.
