Unlimited 24/7 AI streamers on Twitch. Unlimited 24/7 AI TV shows and movies (RIP Netflix, Hollywood). Unlimited AI opinions about any topics. Unlimited AI “grassroots” campaigns. Unlimited AI propaganda from every country and military (perfectly chosen each time). Unlimited AI comments, “friends”, and engagements on every social media platform for your posts.

Go to a local open mic! We're pretty far off from having to worry if the person singing their kind-of-alright song is a robot or not. The Cactus Cafe in Austin has a fantastic open mic night and you will definitely see talented songwriters and meet plenty of authentically human musicians.

Really wish people would stop conflating "Web 3.0" and "Web3" they're entirely different concepts that just have similar names, and don't get me started on "Web5" (but if they are achieving anything it's killing the "Web [version]" naming convention forever) More about Web3 ≠ Web 3.0 for the uninformed / curious: https://www.nexxworks.com/blog/web3-and-web-3-0-are-not-the-...

Welcome to the social media iterated world where ignorant (or uncaring) people think they've coined a new term and don't realize, or care, that they're repurposing a term others are already using for another purpose.

It's incredibly annoying but no matter how hard you push back the online majority zeitgeist quickly overwhelms the previous meaning.

An endless loop of AI generated content that gets posted to the web as original human generated content, with LLMs getting re-trained on this content and spitting out more content that also gets re-posted, resulting in a cesspool of BS masquerading as organic knowledge. I'm old enough to remember when Google provided meaningful search results rather than just SEO spam, the problem is about to get an order of magnitud…

IMO it's more vital than ever to fund projects like the Internet Archive. They're the only ones incentivized to maintain a snapshot of un-LLM-clouded training data of human knowledge, unclouded by the hubris of "who cares about the old stuff, we should focus our archiving on the web as it exists today" that inevitably will take hold (or already has) in big tech companies who will have laid off the vast majority of th…

I see this take a lot and I don't get why this is different from what we have right now. > Unlimited 24/7 AI streamers on Twitch. So basically Twitch as it is? > Unlimited 24/7 AI TV shows and movies (RIP Netflix, Hollywood). Which is TV right now? > Unlimited AI opinions about any topics. Welcome to Twitter. You filter in the same way people always have. Studying, learning, acquiring taste.

> Which is TV right now?

Yeah, not much a change now, but I hope demand for real TV/film will remain. Imagine they were able to shit out entirely AI generated shows and slowly phase out real media because it's just too costly. A lot of good stuff (a lot of bad stuff too, but that's beside the point) would be thrown out with the bath water imo.

This might just push users to more narrower content options. ”ChatGPT FREE Verified”, anyone? Has its ups and downs I guess, but already before ChatGPT I had grown quite a filter for estimating the trustworthiness of a site. I guess the BLOCK -rules just keep on piling..

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Can't or just doesn't need to? Their business isn't search, it's ads.

If search quality degrades enough that people stop using it, it will impact ads.

How bad does search quality have to get before people go back to books? Until that point, it's not bad for ads. (In fact, if the ads are the highest-quality search results…)

PoW mining is about validation of transactions and getting paid by the network and the users for performing this service. As a miner, you're doing work, that you are paid for, and you don't even know your customers or any details about them. This is a novel concept.

I see web3, from the business point of view, as being that whole concept. It won't just be PoW mining, but there will be cases where protocols are developed, that anyone can participate in, and incentives are developed to encourage that participation.

web3 will morph into many things. It will be painful to watch and there will be many mistakes along the way, but I'm glad it is happening. I like to be positive about people experimenting with new ways of doing things.

I've been predicting since GPT-2 that AI text generators will mean the end of the open web and open social media. It will be destroyed by a Biblical tidal wave of unfilterable spam to the point that it becomes useless.

Is there a reason AI can't filter the AI produced content?
