This article criticizing AI gives me strong LLM vibes. Especially this sentence, which addresses the reader directly, as if in response to a prompt: "The split you describe is real, but it’s not new, and it’s not caused by #AI, it’s the endpoint of a long enclosure of commons → platform capture (#dotcons), trust → contracts, sharing → surveillance + monetisation and public space → login walls." by Hamish Campbell on OMN (or is it?)

Looks like it might be a term coined by this author referring to the way the internet is a for profit hellscape and the people who run it look to use code/tech to solve social problems when that's not what it's for or what it's good at.
