But how do you prevent those smaller spaces from being encroached on by LLMs? If they can write fake reviews they can write fake user profiles, and small spaces often have tiny mod teams that can't react quickly to rapid nonsense machines

See the excerpt from my comment you replied to:

If we can’t keep those spaces small and safe from corporate abuse, maybe that not-so-small minority will begin using the internet only as a utility and instead leave the socialisation and interaction entirely for the real world only. It’s far more personal and meaningful that way.

I'm just a little sad at the idea of having to abandon every online space because tech bros refuse to turn off their plagiarism machines. The internet is not all good but there's a lot of little places where things shine through that wouldn't be feasible in real life
