    Ahead of the Reddit IPO, I’m finally done purging most of my Reddit posting history and subtly modifying the rest to poison whatever AI is trained on it.

    I have no doubt Reddit didn’t really delete any of the posts I deleted, but I am hoping the poisoned information will find its way verbatim to an AI’s training set.

    The social media monster pointed to companies already trialing free-form ads, which include Just Eat Takeaway, Kraft Heinz, and Leica, all of which found the format capable of “driving upper funnel results.”

    Actually, I’d really like to see a screenshot of these Leica ads if anyone comes across one.

    With all this money they’ll raise from the IPO, maybe Reddit will finally be profitable! It’s definitely not a way for investors to unload their turds on the public.
