I watched a video[1] recently that posited the idea of AI slop farms making large, auto-moderated spaces impossible to find meaningful human content in. With the idea that it'll lead to a renaissance for smaller, more personal websites like forums or other niche places to flourish.
I think that sounds a little too convenient and idealistic to be what really happens, but I did find the concept to be a potential positive to what's happening around it. Facebook is already a good portion of the way there, being stuffed with bots consuming stolen or AI content from other bots, with confused elderly people in the middle.

If social is heading that way, at least my tool saves you the manual labor of editing the funeral.

I was just joking about your comment on social media's 'death
Regardless, we need more tools like this to speed social media towards death.
