I don’t think social media is going to survive AI, at least not in its current form. It’s not just going to take a blow from the AI content production that’s on the horizon but also AI engagement. Pretty much all of the signals social media platforms use to automate curation of content are about to turn into noise against the backdrop of nearly every participant in the social network being both incentivized and capab…

I think the next stage is decentralized social media. Something like nostr (1) where there’s no centralized entity determining the algorithm to boost. It’s up to the individual to follow users. Perhaps the next challenge would be human verification, even with this protocol we’d need something to index public people by to handle discovery. Even before LLM’s became as mainstream as they are, most social media platforms…

I think this decentralized social media future is already here, and it's private discord servers

This is awesome Would love this, but BYOB bring your own bot Maybe set a minimum message rate, or some other type of reverse Turing test / reverse captcha Let the bots loose It would be so fast we wouldn’t be able to follow in real-time But, we could monitor the interactions and then extract “slow mo” replays for humans to see and share

We've been asked to do this for researchers already, who are trying to prove this is a close replica of a human social graph. Pretty excited to see the results

Wow!! Fascinating. I hope y'all can share when it comes together / publish.

Maybe so, but please don't post unsubstantive comments to Hacker News.

GitHub stars? You mean the stars you can purchase through third party bot services? (As shown here recently on HN!)

Captchas on that will be interesting. "Prove you are not human." "What is 0.3 - 0.1? heh heh heh...."

Came here for this, lol. "Solve this list of linear algebra operations in <10ms"

Or literally ask ChatGPT if Jupiter can fit in the space between Earth and the Moon.

(it fails.)
