That's very interesting. Thanks. Do you know of any reports which aren't alarmist which we can view?

Take a look at one of the articles, (eg this one - https://www.cnet.com/personal-finance/credit-cards/does-it-h... ) and it's easy to see why these pages are generating a lot of page views. This page is clearl

It's been SEO gamed to death. They're trying to fight back with the Helpful Content Update, but it may be too little too late. The rise of AI writers is only making things worse. It's a shame.

I apologise. In my defence, it's only geo-engineering which gets me so riled up. But of course you're right, and I should, and will, tone it down completely. (I'm not sure I have been guilty of 'fulmination' though

Who knows? Nobody, especially on a global scale, which is what they're suggesting.

How interesting that a bunch of tech nutcases now want to geoengineer the planet by dispersing sulphur into the stratosphere to dim the sun to 'tackle' climate change. Mind-blowing stupidity.

But that's not what this LinkedIn tool is. It's just another way to spam online forums with extremely poorly created content. Generative AI text content is really not that good right now, unless you're happy with mediocre re-

Heh, glad to help with your due diligence. Although I'm a little perturbed that I 'single handedly' caused you to change your mind. Maybe some additional, and more reliable, sources might be worth investigating to get a full

I think OP fears for a world where we're awash in thousands of fake content posts which obliterate real valuable connections. It's probably not going to end well.

This is exactly one of the major problems. What happens if a free for all is triggered? Do we get carrier group diplomacy standoffs in various regions to stop nations doing their own bit of engineering? Does the UN step in? So what if it do

Oh? Well that explains a LOT. That's why it's been repeatedly getting so much traction on Hacker News lately. Baseline commercialism is such a wonderful thing.

A MUCH better idea - which will actually change the situation rather than just mask it like this one - is to work towards significantly reducing our emissions. A second idea is to try and reduce our unconstrained consumption. A third idea i

I think you're missing the point a little. Which is that for this to 'work' in any meaningful sense, it has to be scaled up to a planetary level of significant dispersion. This will almost certainly have consequences which we

What you people fail to realise is you're playing with the world, not just your backyard. You have absolutely NO IDEA what the unintended consequences of a planetary scale exercise like this could be. And it could be catastrophic for a

There seems to be a current attempt to get this kind of dangerous nonsense accepted as 'normal'. No doubt the next step is to go for some public support from a 'celebrity' en route to a fully funded trial. Awful awful aw
