Is AI Slop Killing the Internet?
from Patrick Boyle On Finance · host Patrick Boyle
AI chatbots are replacing search engines—and in the process, they’re gutting the economics of journalism, reviews, and the open internet. In this video, we explore how tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Google’s AI Overviews are intercepting audiences, scraping content without compensation, and threatening the viability of independent news and trusted information. From collapsing traffic to lawsuits and poisoned training data, this is a story about what happens when the web’s information economy starts to eat itself.Patrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Derivatives For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance: https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC Ways To Support The Channel:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinanceBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyleMentioned VideosBenn Jordan Poisonify: • The Art Of Poison-Pilling Music Files Benn Jordan on AI Cameras Breaking The Creepy AI in Police Cameras Angela Collier on Vibe Physics: vibe physics My Video on Blitzscaling: The Rise And Fall Of Blitzscaling!
