    Google introduced a new AdSense ad format earlier this year that works similarly, turning text on the webpage into an ad that opens in Google Search.

    Weren’t these super common scam websites a decade ago?

    If they think Adblock should be forbidden because it changes source code, then this is hypocrisy

        I was going to let the comment pass thinking its probably from Mastodon or something because of the hashtags and style. But no, the user is from a lemmy instance.

            haven’t seen the comment but their profile is full of comments clearly written by LLMs

              Yeah the comment looked like any other post that account made and as you said, LLM generated crap. Full of mid sentence emojis, hashtags, and structured like a summary.

                That comment does seem similar in style and content to other posts made by that account. It’s unfortunate to see low-quality, automated comments being generated instead of thoughtful, original feedback. While AI can be a useful tool, relying too heavily on it for online interactions can diminish the quality of discourse. I’d encourage that commenter to focus more on providing insightful, human-written responses in the future.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
