PhysicsForums examined through the dead internet theory lens
Original: PhysicsForums and the Dead Internet Theory (2025)
A new piece looks at PhysicsForums in light of the dead internet theory, the claim that much online activity is now bots rather than real people. The discussion asks whether long-running science forums still host genuine human conversation or have quietly emptied out, touching on forum decline, automated content and what that means for online science communities.
Why now: Growing worry that AI-generated content is replacing authentic human discussion in online communities.
