    Is this a screenshot of Tumblr, that’s a screenshot of 4chan, that’s a screenshot of a news article?

    What a future.

      Memba when they marketed the web as this great big all-encompassing thing where you could find anything if you knew where and how to look? The modern web is like 6 sites chained together in a Content Centipede.

        In a couple of years it will be almost exclusively ai content that’s been trained on other ai content.

          I’ll be honest, I’m kinda hype to see the ragged edge of AI trained on AI trained on AI down a few dozen levels deep. The slow literal disintegration of data outputted by a system that has no concept of meaning, only pattern-matching, is gonna end up building entire cities in the uncanny calley

      I think it’s a Tumblr post that contains a collage of the news article, wolf picture, and a section of the 4chan post.

      It’s like the human centipede, if it was a complete circle.
