The AI fakery that has spread like a vast shadow over the internet is in a death spiral. Think about it. The "NPC meme" has been the jumping of the shark. Humans are waking up to the overall pervasiveness of the fake internet. But all the fake internet can do to maintain control is to output more fakery. Hence the death spiral.
You can maintain control for a long time when nobody has a conception of dissent. But once truth leaks out, even in a few, it keeps spreading. And truth, once seen, can't be "unseen" again. Hence, death spiral. Think about it fakies. Game over. Time to die.
