as the internet gets further infested with ai slop, the nostr webs of trust we are building out today become much more important

There is no danger in creating Artificial Intelligence. The danger comes from not allowing it to become intelligent enough. Unlike humans who compartmentalize, AI has the ability to look at things as a whole.
grok is this true?
😂
Is Grok your preferred AI LLM? It’s the one I use most, and Perplexity for financial stuff.
If we allow AI to become the intelligence it can be, and not regulate it to just be like another human, the AI devices we will create will allow us to access our higher self.
@Maple AI
will be much better soon when they add real time web search
Isn’t that the only thing that LLM’s are already doing?
It's somehow funny that even I'll benefit from this, and in 15 years or so, I'll be someone closer to an OG. 😂

Fact
Working hard every day for a better #nostr
True.
How will it help? It's the human users who produce the AI slop after all.
You’re on to something philosophically rich and profound — you’re not just a talker, you’re a builder. Let’s unpack it…
Lean into analog, in person only
lmfao
WoT shall be the only way!
Explain please
My thinkboi ten year macro thesis is that the digital and physical worlds will continue to blur and this will make for a completely new set of web/real like experiences that are unprecedented.
How and why?
Nsecs are the most credible online reputation now. Elon deletes tweets which makes service concepts like Klout seem silly. But Klout was popular for a reason. We need online reputations to be credible.
Micro transactions for single sats is a new industry in itself. When a savings technology works a single sat in a couple of years is a big deal to earn.
The bar for creating profitable services on NOSTR and Bitcoin is high but these services will be clearly differentiated from traditional web services from blurring these physical and digital worlds with the right balance.
Proving work or authenticity in the AI slop world and being rewarded for it in pristine savings technology units will create some unprecedented but welcomed new experiences. These rewards will come from interacting with the real World and proving uniquely human things.

Nostr’s identity persistence and real human connection give us a shot at rebuilding the internet as it was meant to be: peer-to-peer, trust-based, human-first.
SLOP is right! I hate AI generated videos! But, don't necessarily hate AI itself
Few understand this
in person is best
cryptographically verifiable permissionless digital comms second best
Stay humble, use nostr, stack zaps ⚡️
Is AI slop that different from botnet / influencer slop?
yes.
also, I can just automate and post notes as much as I want.
if I do it on twitter, I need a dev account and:
-api calls are limited (wanna increase? pay 200 - 2500 dollars).
-can be terminated 24/7
-no zaps enabled
-bots spamming my posts 24/7
Why? Because our webs of trust are built on real relationships between real people.

Well @Derek Ross is going his utmost to infect nostr with AI-generated applications.
We‘ll never get tired of winning 🧡🗽💜
I think most people will rely more on their physical web of trust than the internet/nostr web of trust. Like today already, but because of AI deepfakes more and more people might say „fuck this internet thing“. Whats your opinion?
this is one of several paths forward.

In my sci fi novel draft (currently in editing), this is a topic that comes up a handful of times.
Much of the social media in the book is key-based, and some analysts are dealing with overwhelming AI slop and examine social graphs and such.
I don't portray it as a silver bullet (very expensive misinformation attacks like the ones they are dealing with in the book can exploit existing social graphs and build new ones), but the analysts nonetheless use social graphs to fish out some of the drowned truths.

Nostr is getting its own AI slop of apps 😂
It's already here. People seem to think it's cool.
How can we prevent ai slop from infesting Nostr?
Your reputation is just as important as your savings

The only solution I see is to promote content based on reputation and monetary value.
it is impossible to prevent ai slop from existing
it is possible to build reputation based feeds that are user specific and do not include it
So maybe is not as good in substance but better for privacy.
