The bullshit asymmetry principle puts forth that algorithmic 'bullshit' content is even worse as quantity is a quality all in itself when you're debunking the bullshit. In general the reader will not know if the producer of the bullshit is a real human or a bot. This makes the search engines job even harder as not only do you have the standard human bullshit you have to get rid of, you have an oceans torrent of AI generated bullshit that you have to waste energy on getting rid of.
HN has a common theme of saying that "Dead internet theory is wrong", I personally just think they've not waited long enough and it's becoming more true every day.
