A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.

I don't think it's intentional, but I think the sheer quantity of AI slop and web crawlers trying to train new AI models is the main problem. Good websites are blocking access to search engines to try to slow crawler traffic, while shitty websites are being made at an unprecedented speed. I legitimately don't know how you fix this as a search engine provider.
Cmon. How many people used to say something was not done intentionally, only to be proven wrong again and again. Remember the syphilis experiments on black people that the USA gov secretly did? And that doctors co-operated with? The panama papers? The Phobos Cartel?
Always assume they are doing it on purpose! At least someone is aware they are sabotaging their search engine, and plans to profit from it.
Occam's razor. We know for a fact that websites are are stopping web crawlers to try and prevent the AI which is going to reduce the searchability in the search engine
We know that there are more websites being created now than in the past every single day
Combine these two things and it's going to mean that search engines are less useful
Conspiracies help no one and they are very very rarely accurate when they are accurate it's because there is not a single conceivable possible simple solution to the problem
In this case, there is a simple solution that answers everything. So why there could be and there probably is intelligent design behind why things have gone worse the chances of it being the main reason is zero
