How authentic are forums like these actually? With the rise of AI chatbots, internet interaction feels more fake than ever before. Why should I post here my opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. when probably most of you are just chatbots?

I went further still and fed your post into ChatGPT with this prompt: "Analyze this and tell me your prediction on the future of the internet keeping in mind the total enshittification of social media and most of the big tech companies apps and people as products mentality: "

& this is what I got back:

"The text you provided highlights the evolving landscape of AI chatbots and their potential impact on online interactions. As AI becomes more prevalent, distinguishing between human-generated and AI-generated content could become increasingly challenging. The concern about a feedback loop of AI-generated information perpetuating inaccuracies is valid. To mitigate this, it's crucial for platforms to maintain active moderation, user guidelines, and mechanisms for authentic human engagement. The future of the internet might involve a delicate balance between AI and human interactions, with responsible management of AI-generated content to ensure the preservation of genuine conversations and connections."

Does this increase or decrease your concern???
