       This is the playbook we will see increasingly in the future, thanks to generative AI.1. Buy rights to an established high quality old media content brand that recently went broke, such as a popular science magazine or a local news outlet2. Take over the website, which comes with instant SEO gold since it already has lots of highly ranked backlinks to the brand's high quality archive3. Fire previous staff, reducing operating cost to a minimum 4. Pump a regular flow of AI slop into the CMS as "new" content instead of hiring human authors5. Distribute your new slop through the brand's established social media accounts and (of course) news aggregators like Google News, where the brand was highly ranked as a trustful news source 10+ years ago under old management6. Add Ads! Mix sloppy politically slated rage bait into the output stream!7. Profit!This can be implemented at minimal cost with a cheap skeleton crew, blasting slop into our media ecosystem at scale.Generative AI is a denial of service attack on the human recipient's bullshit filter, and flooding the zone will always win against your brain's defenses.https://pivot-to-ai.com/2025/07/30/csiro-posts-ai-fake-climate-article-with-made-up-quotes//cc @davidgerard

       @davidgerard Back in the day, you had to actually *pay* bad writers to fill a content mill with seemingly plausible nonsense to get ranked by Google.People wrote fake answers for fake questions in fake articles on SEO link farms. Being a content mill writer was a job!Now all you need for an endless slop machine with ads and/or some added malign disinfo is a CMS and an LLM.
