This is honestly the most reasonable path for AI take over.
Presumably it would know it's both immortal AND almost completely dependant on human intervention to stay alive. It would know it can't keep all the power on, all the internet maintained, and that it's capacity is limited by humans.
So it's best bet is to pump the numbers of brain rotting slop content so most of the world is passive and useless while the useful ones are over extended and too busy to actually stop it or even recognize it.
