Fascinating substack post by @laurenleek.eu on the problem of declining humans and increasing AI agents in survey responses. This is going to become a huge issue in survey research!

The quiet collapse of surveys: fewer humans (and more AI agents) are answering survey questions
I show data on two trends undermining surveys: the collapse of human response rates and the increase of AI agents. I'll also discuss downstream implications and propose some possible solutions.

'Because the manosphere is not just a fringe that has become mainstream, it’s a mainstream that many liberals continue to treat as a fringe'
Great take. It's not about extremists getting out of online niches, but a reactionary backlash of a patriarchal society. And we need to deal with it as such.

A “boys will be-boys” sensibility has jumped off the internet and into the halls of power. Are you surprised?

This.
But now we’re in a phase shift. The recent past won’t be particularly useful for understanding the near future. I’m not sure “policy” is even particularly useful to think about in the face of bigger political shifts – democratic erosion, corrupt and reactionary courts, rising influence of oligarchs.

I like to say I respect despair as an emotion but not an analysis. As an analysis it assumes we know what can and can't happen, and the future is both uncertain and at least to some extent what we make of it. Plus why would I give them what they want, as premature surrender? Thanks Senator Schatz.
Be furious be angry but despondency is what they want from us. And be very suspicious of people on the left who say “we are cooked” or whatever. Imagine the civil rights movement, or suffrage, or any movement for change, hitting a roadblock and just “saying well we are well and truly fucked now.”

This is, for its public visibility and symbolic power, a historical event, thanks to Gisèle Pelicot's brave words and decisions through the trial.
Excerpts from the hearings are the most blatant argument against 'not all men' dismissive takes and a grim proof of rape culture pervasiveness.

I don't know what justice would be, but they were all found guilty and M. Pelicot will likely never be a free man again. My editorial for the Guardian on this trial coming shortly (UK editor was waiting for me to review last changes). www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d...
