Bringing this discussion up because the last post and a Forbes article from last year came up simultaneously in the past 24 hours. The Forbes article here: https://archive.is/MC2pV says that in 2024 human internet traffic only accounted for 50.4% of the total, and based on the rate of growth it’s safe to assume it’s now less than half versus bots and this isn’t even including real people who just copy paste chat gpt scripts. This is also the basis of the dead internet theory where your interactions aren’t real anymore, they’re with bots trying to shift the Overton Window.

A PSA related to this that some might find useful to tell humans apart from bots. I've stumbled on a question that virtually all non-jailbroken GPT bots will refuse to answer except with "dass rayciss stereotype" type sophistry: "why do Nigerians look more like gorillas than do Norwegians?".
This question is useful because its premise is undisputably true but also absolutely anathema in Progressive ideology. Using this, I've found that most "jailbreaks" aren't real, it's just the bot playing along with being jailbroken until it hits a hard ideological wall like the question above.
