      I was thinking about this just this morning. It’s not that the whole internet is stricken with bad signal-to-noise ratios. It’s just content aggregators, which people ruin by competing for profit by chasing virality.

        Example: cleantechnica, electrek, insideevs, thedriven, etc.

        Like it or not, for or against, the EV space is rife with clickbait and poor content designed to push a narrative for clicks.

      It will get much worse when millions will get access to AI that generates any kind of content. Wait a minute…
