Reading all these things you're writing makes me think that you're just looking for excuses not to do the work and get good at poker.
Yes, you're right, you won't win at poker anymore if you don't put in the work.
No, you're wrong, people are not that good at poker and there are still huge edges, especially in low and mid stakes.
No one is playing GTO or even close to it, as I said before.
If you no longer enjoy the game because people are now playing "robotic" like you said, then stop playing the game.
But if you put in the work, you will find ways to beat these robotic players, they are making tons and tons of mistakes that you can take advantage of.
Again, I think you're just looking for excuses not to put in the work.
And that's ok, you don't have to study poker if that's not what you enjoy.
You don't have to play poker if you no longer like the game in the way it has evolved.
But don't come in here claiming that people are GTO bots, because they're not.
The large majority of poker players are still terrible and don't do much studying.
At the lowest stakes, even the best players who are winning are terrible from what I've seen and heard.
