Enshittification: AI Apps are just scams and slop

from The Internet, Reviewed. · host Kirsten Drysdale

I recently started receiving ads on social media for "educational" history apps. It soon became clear these were almost all just AI-generated junk apps, or outright scams to steal your money.This seems, to me, yet another symptom of the era of enshittification we're in, which is being turbocharged by AI.There seems to be a flood of these AI apps now, so I thought I should warn you about them. Please, if you know of any educational or history apps that are actually good, useful, and not scams, let us know in the comments!More info at my YouTube channel.
