Given how AI is already polluting the water of literary works, I’m likely never going to read a new book for quite some time, but will just pursue books before 2010.

Is 2010 a good cutoff?

    You could start by switching from strangers to friends.

    Strangers on the internet have always been unreliable. AI just adds to the stench.

      count the number of downvotes of this post submission plus my abrasive attitude in this comment and tell me how likely that is to happen

        That just proves my point though

        The down votes are from internet strangers

        I’m an internet stranger

        Friends would presumably be people who share in your interests and outlooks and so would be willing to help you figure such things out. At least mine are.

          My friends are good fun people, but our interest overlap is quite small. I’ve historically found myself learning more about my interest from internet strangers, than from irl friends.
