I’m afraid that in the future, making money online will become impossible or risky due to competition. The reason is that algorithms will only promote corporate content, and AI moderation and algorithms will monitor everything. The dead internet theory is no longer a theory, it’s almost a reality.

    Have you SEEN some of the decisions made by managers and CEOs? Just because your job was actually important doesn’t mean the people who are eliminating it appreciated or were even aware of that fact.

      It takes years for a colossus to collapse even after its heart has stopped beating.

      It takes even longer for it to realize that it has died.

      Oftentimes the crows are picking its bones before it closes its eyes for the final time.

      Oh, for sure.

      To be fair, upper tier management jobs are the first ones I think should be replaced by AI. They’re too emotional and needy and paranoid to make rational choices.
