I think we're witnessing / experiencing a "Kessler Syndrome" of the #Internet.
#KesslerSyndrome is a cascade effect that can happen in Earth orbit, where there's so much junk and debris flying around, that it keeps hitting/destroying satellites and producing more debris, faster than the existing debris is cleaned up.
It could make it impossible for humans to launch anything into space for generations, and it's a serious risk.
It's not a perfect analogy, but AI-enhanced spam is turning the Internet into a garbage-filled wasteland, where the existing garbage keeps spawning more garbage faster than anyone can hope to clean it up.
