The whole video is interesting. Not a viewpoint you'll see if you are Nostr only due to the usual Jack circle jerk around here. A jack-off if you will.

You mean CIA Jack?
It is not the kind of content I see these days. That was a look down a rabbit hole that had a rather baiting title.
I had to stop listening toward the end when she was criticizing the idea of abolishing IP laws. Also I don't really see the problem with marketing a content creation app as free of AI while using AI to code it. The content is AI free. I don't care who makes the code as long as it works. I am not anti AI but anti AI slop.
It took a bit for me to untangle what was off in the video for me.
1) It's almost a "not even wrong" problem, where one can agree on their stance of not supporting the AI industry as a driver for loss in jobs, slop, etc. etc. But they're averse to it like you'd have aversion to a color, and "The AI" is one color.
At that point you're basically arguing for manual content review. Pushed further, you'd almost expect them to start freaking out that the abacus was ever invented.
2) They're also implicitly coming from a mindset where the platform should protect their users. While at the same time, the platform's revenue model is fundamentally antithetical to their wellbeing, so they have to continually tread that dissonance between feeling like opinions matter to their farmers.
Because everything is so open on nostr, we can only expect that everything written/done can be analyzed at any level of detail. We're not asking "platforms" to protect us in any way. We WANT our data/speech to propagate as a fundamental. After that's established we have other rules to tweak the level of openness and visibility.
Not to even say it was a bad video or illogical, if you think AI=automation and you expect platforms should protect you while also farming your use of their product.
It's good to know how the other side thinks. When you're in an echo chamber like Nostr you sometimes forget the are other viewpoints out there.
Completely. Writing this helped me understand more of Corey Doctorow's perspective - solid diagnosis of problems, but the way forward is completely different if you expect platforms to protect you.
