It’s so sad. I feel like we need to be hoarding all sorts of random media that was put out pre-AI, because it’s flooding everything. Videos, music, gaming, historical photos/videos…
Random example: I have a folder of desktop wallpapers that I’ve been casually adding to for the last decade or so. Literally thousands of them by this point, but I haven’t added anything recently because every source is inundated with AI generations now.

So when you going to share them? Setup a torrent and we’ll seed
I may have to one of these days.
Like pre-atomic-steel.
This is as good a time as any to recommend downloading a copy of Wikipedia! And if you already have your copy, please seed afterward!

Is it really only 26gbs to get the entirety of Wikipedia?!
I love seeding Wikipedia but it seems like nobody ever needs me to, there’s always like 800 seeders and only 2-3 clients at most, who never connect.
Shrug
I don’t even mind AI stuff existing, but there probably should be a tag for it
