I know this isn't news but, I recently was taken aback while reading an article on an environmental website and there it was, a reddit post I had made being used as content for the article.

I just read a link to "people dot com" and tons of their content is from reddit posts; you can bet people are going to recognize themselves in those articles - full on "AITA" posts.

As the old saying goes, "you are the product".

Its like 60% reddit, and then 20% google results (which also includes reddit). The other 20% is largely Wikipedia and webmd or something.. so yeah.. if you use AI for anything that matters.. well your probably not doing yourself any favors.

Lol no wonder DDG ai is complete shit. Reddit posts are bots, trannys, mentally ill; jeets and other thrid worlders.
