Author of Slide-Backers: An essay of the experiences of the cohort of delusional time travellers

It’s the oldest story in the world; Girl gets boy, girl dumps boy, then girl gets boy back when the universe develops a glitch in the spacetime continuum.

According to an article in The Economist of 14 July 2025, ChatGPT etc could mean the death of the internet as websites are no longer visited (= no ad money). see www.economist.com/business/202...
AI is killing the web. Can anything save it?
The rise of ChatGPT and its rivals is undermining the economic bargain of the internet
