I'd like to see comments and webmentions integrated into RSS readers, myself.
That way filtering can be done on the client-side, and users aren't so dependent on the community admin to do the filtering. Not sure the final architecture. Forums are still highly centralized.
Cryptopanic.com is an interesting site with a baseline look and feel and comments integrated so something like that but running locally. Then an easy way to "mark as bot" button for training.
My take is that at some point, we will need ID verification online in general to prove you are human. Otherwise it's just chaos out here identity-wise and will get worse like you point out.
It is not about the humans who use AI for posting!
I believe it is more about the bot accounts that gets overwhelmingly annoying... and pollutes this and other places like reddit or other such discussion forums...
Some kind of a verification and vetting needs to happen for account creation.
I agree. But I am also sick and tired of humans prompting some LLM about the points that they want to say and having the LLM generate the response. Online communities will never be the same again.
If they become smart and insightful and don't lie about being human it wouldn't be the worst thing. I'd like having AI friends like Data on Star Trek. But the opposite is the worst thing...
