Ask HN: Should HN ban ChatGPT/generated responses?
The fact that soon the internet will be so flooded with bots that you'll be floating eternally alone in a sea of imposters unless we create some draconian real person ID system is a tragedy so great it's crazy it has not dawned on people yet.<p>I started out loving the net because of the feelings of connection and partly because of the honesty and discussions stemming from at least pseudo anonymity, both silly stuff and egghead discussions on history and tech - but i always felt a "human presence" and community out there behind the screens.<p>Now anonymity is dying and the value of discussions will plummet because you'll be just be arguing, learning or getting inspired from a selection of corporate PR bots, state sponsored psyopping or "idiot with an assistant" that will try to twist your mind or steal your time 24/7.<p>Christ this is going to be so incredibly boring, paranoid and lonely for everyone in a few years time!<p>I'm honestly having an existential crisis, the internets is already filled with too much noise and people are already lonely enough.<p>Back to local community and family i guess, it was amazing while it lasted..
