This happens for decades - Eternal September, email spam, login-only social networks, curated algorithmic feeds - AI is but one late-stage catalysator. I'm actually glad that the change happens faster. Every revolution needs a high pressure tipping point. The internet changed from being a niche platform to an actually global (if not main) scene of society, with all the very human abuse, crime, slave work, authoritarian controls that come with it. I'm excited for what the same forces - that created the early internet - will now make over these emptied fiber veins.
