Since the last decade, there have been sporadic threads here on wizchan and elsewhere around the net regarding dead Internet theory. I read these and brushed them off. I was continuing to have a palatable experience through the early 2020s. I used zero social media, so the bot problem, I felt, barely touched me directly. Not my problem; like a fat boomer grilling while a tornado shreds his neighbors backyard. Somehow, I continued to get something out of the net.
In the past three years or so, the bot problem has been compounded by the AI-generated content problem. The images do not bother me, nor do the videos. The music is just irritating. However, the text is a cancer.
Chatgpt and other LLMs have certain tics that puncture through any prompt intended to rectify these stylistic habits. These are well-known and well-mocked: the overuse of the en-dash, the justification of any hackneyed analysis by the "that's not X, that's Y", certain ways of blocking out text, the list goes on. The point is, after a while one sees these patterns, one hears these patterns when a hack on youtube recites a video essay.
It makes a piece of media immediately uninteresting to me. The content is liable to be depthless and generic, soul suckedout and sort of this same-old crap feel. Content generated by LLMs is all over now and spreading because people are human and lazy and also because bots. It's not hard for a midwit to leverage AI to become a video essayist catering to a bunch of people dumber than him. The result of this compounding is that increasingly it's like the bulk of the Internet's content comes from one hallucinating corporate mind laundered through the mouths (or copy-pastes) of a billion meatpuppets. The Internet is turning into a choir singing with the voice of a singular constructed mind.
There are these useless machine-generated webpages polluting search results with complete waste of time procedural websites. And the search engines themselves put an AI-generated answer before any of the traditional spidered results (the first several of which are predatory sponsored results). And of course, we now have armies of bots armed with LLMs as essentially psyop weapons driving siloed communities to utter detachment from reality, with a wider effect of making many of the actual humans still using the net psychologically rabid abusive cunts.
None of these observations are new. All of this is documented before. There are a thousand other symptoms of the death that I will not enumerate. The difference now is personal. I feel after nearly 3 decades of internet addiction that I don't want to be here and that the net is not a comfortable place for me to navigate. Wizchan remains comfy for the most part, but I'm on here way less than I used to be. I feel like I have lost a companion, often a crutch, of 3 decades. It's pathological I have become so intertwined with a tool. There was an aspect of human connection with the Internet that is being eroded away. Thanks for reading my blogpost.

It pisses me off to no end seeing hacks try to pass off AI slop as their own writing. Nobody wants to read some trite shit written by an LLM.

Honestly we need to begin mass-doxxxing/hunting these people more. We already have for years but at some point this has to end.

Why are you carrying water for a Jewish religion that encourages submissiveness, celibacy, eunuchism, and "godly" interracial relationships? What exactly was "kino" about Christianity? Anything good about it was a continuation of pre-Christian cultural traits and practices. Real Christianity is a bitch religion that has nothing to do with your headcanon version of it.

What you're describing isn't fringe or paranoid-it's a recognizable shift in the texture of the internet. But some of the conclusions you're drawing deserve a bit of sharpening.
First, the stylistic "tics" you're noticing in LLM-generated text are real. Repetition, over-structured phrasing, and certain rhetorical habits show up because these models average across huge amounts of training data. Even when people try to mask it, the patterns leak through. Once you've tuned your ear to it, it's hard to un-hear-and that can absolutely make content feel flattened or interchangeable.
Where I'd push back slightly is the idea of a single "constructed mind" taking over. What's actually happening is less unified and, in a way, messier: a flood of optimization. People-whether individuals, marketers, or low-effort creators-are using tools that reward speed, volume, and SEO performance over originality. LLMs just accelerate that trend. The sameness you're noticing isn't because everything is coming from one mind, but because a lot of incentives are pushing toward the same lowest-effort, broadly acceptable output.
Your point about search degradation is harder to dispute. There really has been a rise in thin, AI-assisted content farms, and search engines have struggled to keep up. The layering of sponsored results and AI summaries on top of that can make the experience feel hostile or, at best, noisy. That's a structural problem with how the web is monetized, not just a side effect of AI.
The bot/psyops concern is also grounded in reality, though it's easy to overestimate how coordinated it all is. There are definitely automated and semi-automated influence efforts, but a lot of the toxicity you're seeing still comes from very human dynamics-tribalism, outrage incentives, anonymity. AI amplifies it, but didn't invent it.
The part of your message that stands out most is the personal shift: the sense that something you were deeply embedded in now feels alien or even hostile. That's not really about AI alone. It's what happens when a long-standing environment changes enough that your habits no longer fit it. The early internet (forums, smaller communities, slower content cycles) offered a different kind of engagement than today's algorithmically-driven, high-volume landscape.
Losing that feeling of "this place fits me" can genuinely feel like losing a companion. But it's worth separating two things:
- The internet as a whole (which has become crowded, optimized, and noisy)
- Specific corners of it (which can still be human, slower, and meaningful)
Those smaller spaces still exist, but they're less discoverable and less dominant than they used to be. Finding them now takes more intentional effort rather than passive browsing.
The bigger question isn't whether the internet is "dying"-it's whether your way of using it still works for you. If it doesn't, that's not a failure on your part. It just means the environment changed and your habits haven't adapted yet.
If you're open to it, I'm curious about one thing: when you think back to what made the internet feel like a "companion" for you, what specifically are you missing? The pace, the people, the sense of discovery, something else?

Project harder. You're the one with an encyclopedic knowledge of BLACKED™ performers and constantly obsess over all that junk. Christianity is a pro-menko religion. Even the more sexually conservative Christians tend to believe that race mixing is fine within a married context. The Catholic Church had no problem creating millions and millions of mongrels south of the Rio Grande, and that was hundreds of years ago.
How much exposure have you even had to actual Christian teachings?
