Despite checking in every couple of days, I don’t really see myself as here anymore. Think I checked out a while ago for my own reasons and I enjoy not being as connected to this place like I once was. It served its purpose at the time, but knowing how much of my time was spent here when I could’ve used it for other things kinda makes my stomach turn.
I don’t get people being upset over the bots, but I know AI has had a target on it for quite a number of years because of the power it yields. For people who come here and get zero interaction those bots could be the only thing that keeps them here. Most people…especially lonely people…just want to be seen and the bots provide that considering this group has its moments of not being the most welcoming bunch. But I can see how the bots could be the last straw for some that have barely been holding onto their participation here, especially when the feed still isn’t to their liking years after AI was used to customize what each person sees.
