How hard would it be to semi machine-generate such vacuous articles? Would it make sense for the ad value of eye balls? Maybe if such generation becomes common

How hard would it be to semi machine-generate such vacuous articles? Would it make sense for the ad value of eye balls? Maybe if such generation becomes common place a shift in value bringing back better curation and editorial lines in social/mass media will occur?
- philovivero 11y agoI'm pretty sure a large chunk of internet content is machine-generated. Read Slate Star Codex for an entire community of generated content. Basically any drug and any side effect have an auto-generated article and related community. I've seen hundreds of articles where the headline was just repeated over and over in different ways in every paragraph with random supporting text. Do the math. EDIT: Read Slate Star Codex for an account of such a community. Slate Star Codex itself is pretty obviously human-generated.
