> Honestly, given that ChatGPT produces higher quality output, the next generation of spam blogs will (sadly) probably be an improvement over the sea of crap we have now.
I think that's questionable. Gibberish is easily skipped over, bargain basement ESL writing with no familiarity with the product sticks out a mile, but with GPT you get a kind of reverse "uncanny valley" effect where it's written in polished English and says just enough in the opening paragraphs that sounds informed to lead you to read half the piece before you realise it's machine generated bullshit. So you waste a lot more time on something that has no more insight (and cost even less to produce)
