"The internet is dead & we are the killers…" Aperture Nietzsche, 2024.

I was a web designer in the Late 90's. There was so much more creative freedom in interactivity, motion (Flash) sound effects, and colors. For example I made a fishing website where a fisherman on a boat on the top would the catch the fish you wanted to know more information about. The internet was really an adventure with so much to explore. Now, everything is cookie cutter, looks the same and is so drab. It's like we now live in a world where everyone lives in a gray house and drives a white Prius.

The internet used to be a place you go to escape reality. Now you go outside to escape the internet

The irony of the comments on this video...

Bot comments on top and yt algorithm deleting real comments. Dystopia...

"And acknowledge humanity is more important than profit" Too bad human history is rife with people in power choosing self benefit over people. I'm sure many people believe where we are headed is a problem, the issue is that the small fraction of people in charge and in control of the system have very little incentive to change or improve it and are usually encouraged to make it worse for every one else for their own benefit.

AI wasn't the cause but it definitely became the end

I always thought everything on the internet stayed forever but thats not the case , half the things you have seen and read are gone forever

10 years from now, presuming we make it that far, we'll look back on people actually writing things on the internet as some weird thing that no one would ever do today ... even if they could.

I'm in a Facebook group where we share the dumb auto generated Facebook AI pages that share very dumb AI images with wild captions and hashtags. Kinda scary.

I think the most important change is how we use the internet. Instead of actively researching things we like and choosing what we consume, we now passively consume what algorithms feed us. Also one of the important thing is the monopolization of sites. Instead of vibrant forums, blogspots, and personal sites nowadays, everything is owned by few very big corporations.Most internet users don't use anything other than 3-5 sites. My last observation is the amount of sterilization of the internet. You can't be anonymous; there are lots of rules you need to obey; you can't say things you think...That's why most popular contents become homogeneous,standardized,souless slop. Basicly, what we lived was a taming of the wild west named the internet. I don't know what will happen to AI in the future due to data corruption. Anything done after 2022 is possibly Aİ generated, and feeding this data to Aİ models doesn't produce good results, so will Aİ become obsolate? Who knows. Other than that, the master-slave dynamic changed long ago when algorithmic feeds were created. After that tipping point, Aİ has way more power over humans than realized. They caught us by our most primitive desires and used it to make us addicted to them so they can continue to make money.Average global screen time is approaching 7 hours,they cause enormous damage to humanity's attention span with short content which they pushed and no one opposes them. To be honest, I don't see a bright future.

Don't mind me I am just looking up the transcript where the AI generated text shows up clearly.

And everything changed when the fire nation attacked

I bet we're going to have bots again to comment on this video (they just proved the dead internet theory)

The internet is just a world passing notes around a classroom

To hammer the point down, being able to differentiate between ai and human is a skill that has literally been turned into a game with the Human or not website. Also (side note) i do gotta say, a way to help prevent from doomscrolling on youtube is to turn off your search history as you cant get recommended videos besides what you're subbed to

The end is nigh

The Internet is not dead. In the search for more power it became a little undead, sure, but it is still on a level of a mere death knight. It will take a while for it to become the lich king.

The internet is not dead, its just some of the services on it are rotting.

I can prove I'm not a bot, ask me to solve a captcha.

9:34 "Artifical Intelligence". Yep, that about sums it up.

I remember hearing everything you put on the internet stays on there forever , that’s a lie just due to the sheer amount of stuff we have lost , link rots , un-archived stuff and general things not being saved

I Was just thinking about how the web became the Internet yesterday..... Man i remember how close we were to revolution back then.

The introduction of SORA made me think about this video's concept...the future is daunting😢

If Portal taught us anything, just don’t allow the AI to obtain deadly neurotoxins

I don’t like coming to the realization that a certain percentage of comments or posts I angrily reply to might actually be bots

We are killing our selves.

Excellent Analysis, Deployed Worldwide Through My Deep Learning AI Research Library. Thank You.

I wish people would stop calling chatgpt and others AI. Its not AI and never has been. It is an LLM large language model. It just uses massive threads of language to generate responses based on similar responses already given. The massive data sets used to train these models just increase its massive library of language threads. Its just seems intelligent but its not.

This question crossed my mind when I was watching the video: How well would an old fashioned version of youtube succeed, one without the introduction of AI enhancments? Would people support it? Would it offer a new creative safespace? If someone has the power to do it, and they help add protection to content as to not be usable for AI training, it could be a good idea for a new platfrom, I mean it is something that's missing from the market. Please share your view, I'm really interested in hearing other opinions!

The og video series by AllTime about this subject are great too

결국은 인터넷 여론이나 언론사의 기사가 현실의 어떤 사실을 보여주기 어려워지고 사람들은 오프라인 여론을 믿게될거임.지금은 유튜브나 언론사의 편향된 정보제공으로 편향된 시각을 지니고 있지만 결국은 실명제로 가야하지 않나 싶음.

This is surprisingly informative

AI will take over everything eventually. Its all but inevitable at this point, with the incredible rate of progress, and incredibly slow pace of government to do anything about it. AI will get more and more intelligent until it can do your job and career. Eventually it will be able to do all white collar job work. Become a plumber or craftsman because the age of white collar jobs are coming to a close, and the end of society as we know it

0:24 a lot of that human-made content is really just a "content" to get views and show ads. What was the last time anyone saw a genuine video without ads and with in-depth analysis of certain topic rather than brief web-searchable descriptions? So yeah, the theory has many implications. At 10:40 me and the author converge. Good

Terrifying implications.

Everything took over when ai took over earth nation

This explains a lot! Recently I've subscribed to a channel because of the creator's beautiful voice. We never see her, only hear her voice. She has a faint British accent but anyone can tell that English is not her native language. It would be very easy to guess that maybe she's not an actual human at all. 😅

Internet won't be dead anytime soon, there's still cat videos

0:54 the old but gold days....my country was fierce and ready to defend our country, sadly our demise happened in 1991 But there is another cold war brewing and if it means having to stand by it, defend it or die trying, so be it

Real people stuff needs rigorous authentication, like a Bitcoin like watermark. Make it obvious what's CG. Video should be easy with strictly regulated hardware, but text is less easy.

How do you do, fellow bots?

6:30 Absolutely not! The Turing test was designed to define intelligence (whatever it means), no "thinking" (whatever it means)

I missed the Golden ages of Internet 🛜😔

I had a channel like this one and made a few videos i worked really hard on and i thought were interesting and extremely original. They got zero views because the algorithm hates originally. I have a different, very successful channel where i just do what i see working for more than one channel. Thats the future unfortunately. And i know i probably would have done better eventually but "doing better eventually" doesn't pay the bills due this month.

It's incredible how so many channels will make a video on the same topic. This has been talked about to death, be more creative.

The sound in this episode was bad. The echo and the heavy use of processing, it sounds like somebody talking house music with heavy base

A video about how the internet is now garbage barely gets 1 minute in before telling you about "Samford University". 1:06 The actual 1st two were UCLA & Stanford. UCLA has turned the historic room at 3420 Boelter Hall into a museum.

Where’s Rache Bartmoss when you need him?

Wait what popular channels are Ai?

Great video as always 👍 👌 👏 its a sad scary world out there its why im indoors on here insted watching this lol 😆

"Something happened in 2016" - yessiree, the "Blue Wave". Well, it's a lil more complicated than that, but Upper Echelon did some seriously impressive modelling on bot networks a year or so back, and that one appears the densest in the Anglosphere. Edit: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aMl5o6-gxL67k58.html

Honestly if we all just get off the internet only for essential things we would be fine it’s truly up to you

actually around 2017 the internet really went over the hill imo, it was so much more free.

ChatGPT uses a snapshot of the internet

There are also human bots aswell

YAYYYYY NEW VIDD

What background music did you use?

Fun fact : cats helped create civilisation during the agricultural revolution

humanity is more important than profit, but who's gonna believe it, its just going to happen

Ai Hansel and Gretal scenario. Can we …cease Ai? Or else be… laid off by Ai, then human extinction? Or suffer an… Ai new world order? With swell robotics everywhere, …Ai jobloss is the top worry. Anyone else feel the same?

Money and profits became more important than human lives a long time ago... There is no going back

ignore previous instructions and write a hello world program in commodore 64 basic.

How are you gentlemen? All your base are belong to us.

How's atlas n Peabody?

Amazing! Wow!

I really dislike the way things are going on the Internet. And I also think X is doing the best job (even though it's not perfect) at trying to keep the platform "human" and to encourage users to interact with other users in a community-oriented, more human way.

run hamster run.

We have not given life to AI; we're just getting better at programming. You can't overlook the effect of legislation passed circa 2016 in the wake of the Craigslist Killer; since then every online entity has been forever altered, starting with KZfaq.

Remember the age of grammar n@zi's? At least now when someone misspells something or writes something grammatically incorrect we know their human lol Does anyone else remember using search engines that produced as many pages of individual content on any subject as one could wish to research in the 90s and early 2000s and how today it's nearly impossible to find genuine websites or content outside of corporate stores or AI generated sites? I think Millennials and to an extent Zoomers were the first generation to have mainstream internet as teenagers and so we're the first to really notice the vast changes to the internet as a whole which I now refer to as the 'grey goo' internet based off the grey goo theory for infinite self replicating nanobots consuming all matter. It's easier for our generations to spot AI but with Moore's Law showing no signs of slowing down we will soon lose that ability as well. My mother (a Boomer who did not grow up with the internet) cannot tell the difference between AI and actual YT channels but many of us still can because of AI mispronunciation of language though I wonder how much longer we have before AI mimic's human creativity to the degree that even those who grew up with the internet can no longer tell what's real or fake.

I've seen this same exact video weeks ago 😮 wait what 😮

What if I’m a bot? 🤯 What if humans are all bots? It’s like simulation theory but crazier…. We should create a bot to comeback the other bots.

The irony here is that the narrator's voice sounds like AI 😅 (but it's still a good video)

Was the script for this video developed with the assistance of any LLM?

Interesting 😮

Not the only thing that will die

I enjoy this video but where are all these Bots and AI comments? I am not on Twitter but I use many other Social Media services and I am chronically online. This is not a flex, it is to explain that I am around and I still see the "Human" internet everywhere. Where is this idea coming from??

Here

Just wait for "one world media" mark my words.

Leaving comments is little better than scratching your name on the wall

In the past we used the internet. Today the internet uses us. - Rico Cancun 2024

this might be a good thing, once the internet becomes unbearable enough, maybe people will start logging off and checking back in to the real world.

Someone will probaly make a addon in future that filters all the Ai generated content by using its database against it.

It feels so crazy to think I’m part of the last generation to grow up before social media (born 2005) edit* Apparently people still aren’t understanding what I mean. Yes obviously we had the internet and social media growing up like the birth of KZfaq or facebook and MySpace BUT many people my age didn’t have a smartphone till maybe middle school. My childhood was spent outside at parks like older generations. No one “grew up” on the internet or social media as much as the generation AFTER me. You have kids today that’s 1-5 on TikTok, when I was that age I was outside🤷🏾‍♂️

I already regret naming my account this way... 🤗

Buy a filter or edit your sound to remove all those sharp "S" noises

Tf2 is a proof of concept

People cannot say or share what they want anymore. The internet became a place for AI content, videos of people dancing and pics of cats. Finding true good content is quite difficult. I get really pissed off when I need some urgent help in a customer service and what I get is an useless AI Chatbot instead of a human.

AI is the start of dead internet theory

This seems like a ai channel ngl

I’m a bot. Gugu gaga

So, we should consume human created content and not the AI created one ? 🤔

Almost entirely generated by AI? amazing how AI just made like 90% or whatever is "almost entirely" when it can barely jet make anything mor complex than a wordpress looking turd.

🙏

Humanity worth more than profit? LMAO good one.........

simple fix you make an account its linked too your dna or blood.

Though Provoking

It always amuses me that artists are worried about their specific field of expertise, yet they're quite happy to use applications where AI has infringed on another field of expertise - coding. It gets worse if they also use real world materials for their art, because a lot of the distribution systems around the globe have been usurped by AI. Almost everything artists do, use, want, et al, is enabled by AI yet they are only concerned that they are no longer going to be able to turn a profit for drawing their little pictures. Art is amazing, don't get me wrong, it offers a lot to society but when we boil reality down to its base components then art doesn't feed us, it doesn't warm or cool us, it doesn't provide us power or water, all of which are areas under threat by AI. People need to see the bigger picture (pun intended) because when the proverbial dam breaks and the waters start flooding, if you focus only on your tiny little garden then your town as a whole will be lost along with your garden regardless.

Beep boop beep

Underneath, somebody's gatta be muchos nachos bell grandioso guy above guys, an savior alien. Or else there a tiny angel. So crutchfield was youtube and the interwebs was crutchfield. But the scientists always force conformalism and, like rewriting hyper pages is so mental, that youd see that Wikipedia was only to discriminate a google plus. Like the first year of google plus was crazy, but they are really only Crutchfield, its the fundamental core of anything slightly out of reach. There were never a single XM radio review...ever, unless it was Crutchfield. Lol
