In the same vein, is everyone's feed on Facebook and Insta full of weird pedophile AI-generated videos of seemingly ultra young girls in swimsuit moving lascively, and then the next video is some kind of AI slop of a fake "outrage scene" in some random fastfood where a fat guy is screaming at the waiter... those seem to be generated just to cause more hatred and pain to people

Sex, hate, and anger are the currencies of the modern web.

those seem to be generated just to cause more hatred and pain to people

That is correct. That is the intent.

We are going to end up in a two tiered society with people who quit social media, and those who bought the Meta glasses and sit in a wall-e style chair being fed an endless slop outrage feed.

Only if you think this type of content is organic and made by some people for entertainment or money.

However if you consider that it is part of the information warfare with the western societies, the end result seems to be different.

Guess which class can actually quit
