for anyone who has been on Reddit for a long time, you've noticed a downturn in the quality of almost everything. With the release of chatbots and the advances in ai, there is a strong likelihood of Reddit becoming just bots talking to bots. What if he has info that it is happening more than we suspected and figures the platform is doomed, and it's time to cash out because no one can stop it? he wouldn't be able to say so.

Based on some of his recent interviews, he's just a narcissistic idiot driving it straight into the ground like Elmo is doing to Twitter. In fact, in one of his interviews he actually praises how Musk is running Twitter and states that he's trying to emulate that. Idiot.

Not a real problem! Solution:

  • Flood Reddit with AI generated content so it looks alive
  • Allow bots to borrow money
  • Teach bots to parse ads
  • Allow bots to spend borrowed money on cheap plastic shit from China
  • ???
  • Profit!
