About this episode
In this episode of SoapBoxLex, we dive into the fascinating and unsettling concept of the Dead Internet Theory—the idea that much of the modern web is no longer driven by people, but by algorithms, bots, and AI-generated content.
We explore how social media platforms, recommendation engines, and automated systems are reshaping online conversations, blurring the line between human interaction and machine-driven influence. Are we witnessing the decline of authentic digital spaces, or simply the next phase of internet evolution?
Join us as we unpack the implications for culture, creativity, and the way we connect online.
