Reddit Cofounder Ohanian Says Much of the Internet Is Now Dead

> Even your group chat isn't safe, though. Some texters have begun using AI to generate and edit their messages, bringing another level of bots to the forum.

AI is here to stay so it's not helpful to call it dead. AI allows people without eductional opportunities growing up or those writing in a language other than their native language to express themselves more accurately.

It also gets in the way of our natural progress in reading, writing, and learning languages. I mean, of course, people could use AI to teach and learn, but why bother when a simple prompt instantly solves the problem?

It’s a double edged sword, and right now, I think it poses a risk.

If you're in a foreign country and can't communicate because some servers are down, that could put you in a tough spot. If the models were on the edge, that'd change things, but as it stands, you might find yourself in situations where the future™ totally fails you. AI will be great when its use is seamless, and you don't have to worry about the how or when.

Having to rely on a machine we can't control just to interact with people is a threat model I am not okay with. It's probably going to create a rift in society for the foreseeable future, at least if the pricing for ultimate plans stays at $200.

If the past is any indication, edge models will be the norm. I recently attended a panel at the Computer History Museum where Daniela Rus spoke about her company Liqued AI and it's edge models.

Redefining what’s possible on the edge. Liquid’s edge-native stack delivers the fastest AI with zero cloud dependencies — powered by LFM2, built with LEAP, experienced in Apollo.

"much of the internet is dead [so come to my internet]"

why did the rest of the internet die? part of it was because we kept splitting the pie over and over.

didn't reddit start out as a mostly fake-user site?

> The Reddit cofounder referenced "dead internet theory," which asserts that there is more bot activity than human activity on the web

It's depressing. Not just the slop, but the knowledge that there's still a ton of good stuff out there that is completely buried in favor of slop.

It makes places like this all the more valuable.
