Can AI Avoid the Enshittification Trap? WIRED’s Look at Big Tech’s Next Crisis

In this video, we explore a thought-provoking WIRED article titled “Can AI Avoid the Enshittification Trap?” — a deep dive into whether Artificial Intelligence is destined to follow the same decline that’s plagued so many tech platforms before it. The piece draws on Cory Doctorow’s theory of “enshittification” — the process by which once-useful platforms like Amazon or major social networks shift from prioritizing users to prioritizing profits, ultimately degrading the experience for everyone. Using a positive personal encounter with GPT-5 as a travel planner, the author reflects on how AI still offers genuine value today — but warns that the relentless push to monetize and commercialize AI could lead to the same erosion of trust, quality, and transparency that’s defined other Big Tech ecosystems. We’ll unpack what “enshittification” really means, how it could affect the future of AI tools, and whether companies can resist turning innovation into exploitation.
