You want a disgusting AI generated content mess? Because that’s how you get a disgusting AI generated content mess.
Honestly, Spez probably does want that. AI won’t destroy shareholder value when you screw it over. It will also fill in some gaps left by the real people leaving.
It’s complete Dead Internet, but none of that is really a concern for them.
The r/cryptocurrency sub is distributing moons alongside karma and it’s a mess. Karma bots as well as market manipulation bots are the majority of that sub contents.
Some Redditors actually have some experience with this, because some subreddits award Community Points which are really crypto tokens based on karma. I earned enough shitposting last year that I had to figure out how to properly declare it on my taxes.
While it increased traffic, most of the increased traffic were low effort posts and the same old jokes farmed for Karma. I think there were even more bots there, too. Real discussion sometimes got upvoted, but a well-timed Elon Musk joke could earn $20 or so
If something similar is implemented site-wide, this (in conjunction with the API changes that hinder moderation) will no doubt result in an influx of bots mining memes for cash.
Now that I quit Reddit, I need to figure out how to sell those now.
So, you can earn an undisclosed amount of money if you make an undisclosed amount of comments each month. That sounds like a deal worth passing up.
will attract many of the same people that answer surveys for pennies.
LMFAO, this is the platform where people are getting the most upvotes for reposting stupid memes. Paying to do this would cause Reddit to be rottting faster than ever before
I can smell the bot farming from here.
