We are still missing a decentralized identity and reputation layer. I imagine in the future, people will sign their comments with a key that proves they’re a real human.
I would simply ask GPT-n what to write next, copy-paste it into the text box, sign it with my key, and hit reply. Its ability to write better comments than me would serve to gain me reputation rather than reduce it as so often is the present case.
Man, how crazy. Continuing like this, they could create their own identification keys for machines and despise us. It seems that in this whole game only they end up winning.
Robots will of course have keys they can sign with, so perhaps we will rely on government digital ids such as he Estonian public key system. In that case, governments will have a monopoly on sockpuppet accounts.
This. It's the elephant in the room for so many of our problems related to abuse, trolling, influence campaigns, garbage content, attribution etc etc.
OTOH, is proof of personhood really what we want long term, or is that just a proxy? Hypothetically, if an AI is good & trustworthy enough, why not allow a higher "source rating" for that than low quality human content?
Hehe hadn't seen that. For sure. To critize the strip (treading on thin ice, I know), I think the core issue is not the bots generating content, but that they're participating in the voting.
