But this is also fooling journalists.
Because they have an inflated sense of their success from these clips and short form stuff, but then it doesn't translate to like actually butts in seats.
Wait, how do you read the Internet then if it's not social media?
Obviously, the big question in all of this is where is regulation?
Like, what are the platforms doing about it?
What is the FTC doing about this?
If anything looks like per your story, they're not commenting or really doing anything.
But who is regulating this?
Because technically, as you said, and I do just want to underscore this, this is illegal.
It's secret advertising that is not being disclosed as advertising.
So what's being done about it?
Yeah, they need this infinite scroll that comes from these clipping agencies just putting out slop, but it's also kind of undercutting them in some ways.
And you mentioned this already, but right now we're in this place where it's real people making these clips that they're then posting from these however many accounts.
But in the future, it might be AI agents replacing people doing the clipping.
And this all seems incredibly bleak and incredibly depressing, but I'm trying to wonder if there's a way in which this is actually good.
And this kind of relates to what you're saying about people, real people leaving social media.
Yeah.
Does this contribute to dead internet theory?
That's the idea that the internet is just going to be bots talking to bots and AI talking to AI and we're all going to get offline and actually like hang out with each other?
Like, is that the one positive we could take from this?
