The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.
Massive Blue is helping cops deploy AI-powered social media bots to talk to people they suspect are anything from violent sex criminals all the way to vaguely defined “protesters.”
Dystopian Door: A 2 hour Meditation Journey Through a Futuristic Post-Apocalyptic World
Imagine yourself standing at the edge of a desolate, post-apocalyptic world, where the very fabric of reality seems to have been torn apart. The air is thick with the acrid smell of smoke and ash, and the sky above is a deep, foreboding grey. The fog that rolls in seems to shroud everything in a damp, chilling mist, casting a sense of unease and foreboding over the entire scene.
In the distance, a sci-fi futuristic building stands tall, its sleek, angular design a testament to the advanced technology that once thrived in this now-devastated world. The red lights that glow from within cast an eerie, otherworldly glow over the entire scene, as if warning of the dangers that lurk within.

Cloudflare's next-generation "AI Labyrinth" promises to "waste resources" as-a-service, using today's machine learning models to sabotage tomorrow's
How Cloudflare uses generative AI to slow down, confuse, and waste the resources of AI Crawlers and other bots that don’t respect “no crawl” directives.
Today, we’re excited to announce AI Labyrinth, a new mitigation approach that uses AI-generated content to slow down, confuse, and waste the resources of AI Crawlers and other bots that don’t respect “no crawl” directives. When you opt in, Cloudflare will automatically deploy an AI-generated set of linked pages when we detect inappropriate bot activity, without the need for customers to create any custom rules.
And it's "free"! (visibility in to all of that traffic is more than sufficient payment for them 🤑)
Here are some perhaps-contradictory highlights from their blog post (emphasis mine), which I'm pretty sure was itself written with LLM assistance:
No real human would go four links deep into a maze of AI-generated nonsense.
When these links are followed, we know with high confidence that it's automated crawler activity, as human visitors and legitimate browsers would never see or click them. This provides us with a powerful identification mechanism, generating valuable d
I can no longer tell what is and is not satire.
Is this a joke? What else could be under that tarp? It even has a little flap for the plug.
I feel my ability to understand satire is being attacked by reality.
And I checked the comments and its a mix of musk riding:
"I don’t understand how people get so easily manipulated into hating someone that has done so much to change our life’s. Elon is great man and is doing great things for our country and uncovering so much corruption and honestly he needs more credit"
or thinking this is a joke:
"That’s not hiding the fact that there’s a swastikar under it"
For when your data is too valuable to be stored on Earth… I've gotta get my Deviant Art sketches on the next shuttle.
