Media and search engines nowadays need a flag system and a filter for AI junk results
I've been thinking a lot about the state of things, and where we are heading.
At what point do we consider the internet "useless"? It must be coming very soon (less than 2 years), since the majority of content will be AI generated and targeted, which drives down the value for users even further.
Once original ideas vanish, and you can't trust any text/audio/video/photo you see, what will be the point? It's like the internet will simply be a video game world with next to no value.
And I can't see how society can possibly reverse this.
Conversely, I still need to make and receive important phone calls even though the vast majority of calls I receive are spam
But you know they are spam, so it's something you can avoid. But what if the majority (over 80%) of the calls you receive can't be identified as spam. At some point, you may be wasting far more time than it's worth to keep using a phone without some major whitelist/blacklist system.
Also, what happens when the outbound calls you make are answered by AI, and you don't know? If this AI is giving you replies that are word salad, how long are you willing to tolerate it?
I've been getting text messages now from companies that I actually do business with, but they are spam. Calls from companies that I have accounts with, and they are scams. At some point, SMS and phone calls will be more trouble than its worth.
And the thought of either having to go without it, the pain of replacing it, or the frustration of being strung along in a scam are not thoughts I want to have.
