Clay Shirky calls it "filter failure": https://mascontext.com/issues/information/its-not-informatio... > The cost of producing anything by anyone has fallen through the floor, famously, and as a result, there is no economic logic that says you have to filter for quality before you publish. Moreover: > What we are dealing with now isn’t information overload, because we are always dealing with information overload, the problem is filter failure. I think this is a compelling take. It's gotten to the point where I have to use ChatGPT to look for good sources instead of Googling directly. I held out for a while, but had to capitulate in late 2024 when search engines just became a total slopfest. As a sidenote, I did enjoy Houellebecq's Le sens du combat. :P |
