Episode notes
In this episode, we dive into one of the most unsettling modern conspiracy theories: the Dead Internet Theory. We explore the claim that the vibrant, human-centric internet we once knew died around 2016 and has since been replaced by an endless loop of AI-generated content, bot-driven engagement, and algorithmic manipulation.
