    I cannot image how shitty it will get with bot farms contributing and upvoting AI generated shit for people too dumb to know they’re being fed BS.

      Why even involve users? Bots posting AI generated stuff. Upvote bots upvote, comment bots comment and repost bots repost. Its the ciiiiiircle of life…

      The worst part is that some generated AI looks exceptional, so bad actors posting it without saying it’s AI art would trick most people, anything for engagement I guess…

      Well, with many of the site’s top contributors having left, much of the more informative content can then be written by Reddit’s own AI. Throw in a few bot upvotes for visibility and watch the tips come in from the remaining people who don’t have a clue what’s going on.

      I could see that bringing in revenue. That’s money straight from the users into Reddit’s pocket.
