I'm already more sick of hearing about AI than NFTs and Crypto. At least those largely stayed within their own separate spaces where they could be ignored.

"AI" is infecting everything. Even Duck Duck Go has it now. The web has become so enshitified. Search engines are just ad-link spam and the results are largely poisoned by AI generated sludge so even when you think you've found a useful article, you realized partway through it's LLM garbage.

What a depressing dystopia, it's not even sexy like the movies, it's just a bland, sludge-filled wasteland.

Trying to avoid it has becoming so tough. For months now, I've been painstakingly building my own content feeds from trusted sites, forums, and content sources. It's like the old internet, I've literally started buying books for tech topics because finding reliable help and documentation is getting harder every day.
