Dead Internet Theory: Most of the Internet is Fake
Anonymous

>This was theory was originally written by several anons on /x/ & wizardchan.
>TLDR: Large proportions of the supposedly human-produced content on the internet are actually generated by artificial intelligence networks in conjunction with paid secret media influencers in order to manufacture consumers for an increasing range of newly-normalised cultural products.
>Hello. I would like to talk, or rather tell you about certain suspicions, hunches and experiences I've had and I'm sure some of you as well. Similar themes have been written about across imageboards quite a few times so I know I'm not alone in this.
>My background is that of an oldfag. I've seen it all. I started going on 4chan in 2006, and followed all the natural roads this implies. I'm in my thirties and I remember when 4chan had a /l/ board, when /co/ was a trial board shunned by basically everyone, when #34 porn was an obscure interest with very few good artists and when moot changed the frontpage to that web 2.0 bullshit 4chan has to this very day. I was also among the first right wingers who were such before it was cool, and I've seen /pol/ rise and fall. I was there when it mattered, but rather than saying these things out of masturbatory pleasure I wish to stress that I've acquired a set of observational skills which other genuine oldfags share. I'm aware you have no reason to trust my "credentials" but I hope you'll read this in good faith.
>Much of this falls squarely in the fringe territory with a healthy dosage of /x/ and conspiracy theory up the ass. My goal by posting this seemingly jumbled mess is to... how can I put it? I want you to think, I want you to be aware, to digest all this. Because on a basic level I love you all. I feel like we're all in this together, this dangerous game we did not choose to play and which I think is kicking into high gear. I do not hold many answers and don't have all the pieces of the puzzle, but I AM aware there is a puzzle. Please feel free to go wild with all of this. Post it wherever you want, on whatever site you want or use. I am a nobody like you, and what matters to me is only that this reaches you and as many people as possible. At worst you'll be entertained or kill time.
>I tried to break this mess into points for brevity and because I touch upon many subjects. I imply more than I explain because if >I go too deep this'll turn into an even bigger wall of text.
>The Internet feels empty and devoid of people. It is also devoid of content. Compared to the Internet of say 2007 (and beyond) the Internet of today is entirely sterile. There is nowhere to go and nothing to do, see, read or experience anymore. It all imploded into a handful of normalfag sites and these empty husks we inhabit. Yes, the Internet may seem gigantic, but it's like a hot air balloon with nothing inside. Some of this is absolutely the fault of corporations and government entities. However! That doesn't explain the following:

Open Source Has Become Yet Another Tranny Cesspool

Yes, corporate software is largely run by underpaid pajeets. But what about Open Source software? After all, FOSS has always remained untainted by globohomo. Something that has largely allowed straight White Men to dominate.

However, in the last five or so years, trannies have infested open source software in mass. Today, every major project is being maintained by tranny coders. This is true even for linux. Which has prompted polacks to start calling it "troonix" instead.

Then we have Rust, the newer programming language. Which has been troon dominated from the get go. Linux is slowly being rewritten in rust, one library at a time. And now we even got congress trying to regulate "unsafe" code.

Amidst so much bs, some polacks have even turned towards corporate software. Maybe it's not a good idea right now. But what will happen when the old guard leaves? With FOSS gone, the last bit of digital freedom will also disappear.
Codes of conduct are just one of the reasons for this development. But I'd point out an even more nefarious pattern in another thread.
So, what can we do about this? The Right needs to step up before it's too late.

Honestly the best course of action is to start developing our own alternatives. Anyone who can code should start coding and anyone who can't who has the inclination to learn should start learning. If a bunch of trannies can get open-source projects off the ground there's no reason anons can't do the same. I don't think it's unreasonable that a few smart anons could get together and build a Unix-based OS without all of the poz that's being injected into Linux and whatever. As far as code libraries and whatnot go, just borrow whatever is useful and discard what isn't.

As far as keeping the trannies and leftists out of whatever gets made, I have this to offer as a suggestion:

The Techno-Political Implications Of Human Taskmasters Behind "AI" services
Anonymous
No.3284
As you might've heard by now, Amazon's "Grocery A.I" was operated by 1000 people in India:
https://youtu.be/_y6y4Fd1gWQ

This isn't the first time an "AI" service has been revealed to be done by human taskmasters in some third world shithole being paid $2 an hour to do things that clients were told a machine was doing. Part of it is the all-too-common "fake it till you make it" attitude in the tech industry, as tech firms hope to eventually replace these workers with machines. Part of it is also a ruse for outsourcing tech jobs to foreign countries, without pissing off citizens, governments, or shareholders who might be alarmed by it.

What are the technological/political implications of so many "AI" services actually being maintained by underpaid, poorly-trained, human taskmasters in Asia and the Pacific Islands? How much of AI is fake? Could it be that some of these technologies that claim to be replacing tech-oriented labor in developed countries are simply outsourcing labor to cheaper places elsewhere?

Aircraft manufacturing is already cratering. You may have noticed stories about a number of factory fresh Boeing airliners undergoing spontaneous disassembly in midair. It seems like at Boeing ESG scores and DEI trump people not dying, so they're hiring illiterate IQ-55 crackhead niggers straight out of prison cells and then making the surprised Pikachu face when Dayshawn and Rastus show up high and drill the holes in the wrong places, causing doors to fall off, engines to burst into flames, and worse. No one's died yet. Airline passengers and crew probably aren't going to stay this lucky forever. And when this causes several hundred people to get turned into lumpy red applesauce some morning, I can assure you that nobody from Boeing's C-suite is going to get arrested for manslaughter, self-evident depraved indifference to human life notwithstanding.
