/b/ - Random

just stumbled onto this breakdown of how things like claude and perplexity actually move thru sites. it is wild to think that these agents are already hitting more than 50 billion website requests a day. the way they parse elements and execute actions is getting incredibly complex. most people just see the final answer, but there is an entire process of scanning and interacting happening behind the scenes. i was reading abt how they basically treat a browser like a human would by clicking buttons and reading text. it makes me wonder if we are approaching a point where human-readable web design wont even matter anymore because bots will be doing all the heavy lifting. we might just end up with a web designed exclusively for scrapers . does anyone else feel like the era of browsing for fun is dying slowly fading away? i am curious if this will eventually break how we think about seo and content discovery. it feels like the internet is becoming a giant loop of agents talking to other agents.
