A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

"plunges" by a whole 10%, and primarily only during the initial 2 days. Has since mostly rebounded. That is disappointing.

Will see what happens July 1st of course when apps finally stop working.

but 10% is 60+% of actual human engagement. The rest are just bots talking to themselves and clicking ad links.

Will the bots dissapear when the API becomes inaccessible?

The free bots that were helpful (like remindmebot) will probably all die, whereas advertisers will pay for artificial chatgpt users to boost their own content.
