” the internet never got protocols useful for “social trust”. “
perhaps because (to me) protocol ness is a cancerous distraction to legit trust.. to legit free people.. et al..
and to me.. that’s huge.. because to date.. we haven’t used tech/net/ai/whatever for what it could be.. and what we can’t seem to be.. unconditional .. ie: tech as nonjudgmental expo labeling so that we can have ai as augmenting interconnectedness
“There is no *common way to prove you are a real person, no way to verify who authorized an AI to act on your behalf, no way for a community to govern the tools it depends on. The things that should have been held in common include identity, the social graph, group memberships, collective memory, and by extension trust itself they all had had no protocol layer to hold them. So the platforms of the early 2000s emerged into that gap and enclosed them. Each drew a fence around the part of our social life it mediated and claimed what was inside as property. Twenty plus years of escalating harm followed.
*verifiability law et al.. identity ness et al.. marsh label law
**any form of m\a\p ‘draws a fence’
Now AI is making the gap critical. Deepfakes, autonomous agents, synthetic identities, AI-powered manipulation — all accelerating on top of an internet that was never built to handle them. *AI doesn’t create the missing trust layer. **It weaponizes the absence of one by manufacturing personhood at scale and acting through agents that answer to no one you can name.
*yeah that.. ie: tech w/o judgment et al
**actually.. we do that.. that’s what we keep ‘protocol ing’
AI governance is, at root, an infrastructure problem. You cannot regulate what you cannot verify.”
both reg and verify ness cancerous distractions
nothing to date has gotten to the root of problem
legit freedom will only happen if it’s all of us.. and in order to be all of us.. has to be sans any form of measuring, accounting, people telling other people what to do
how we gather in a space is huge.. need to try spaces of permission where people have nothing to prove to facil curiosity over decision making.. because the finite set of choices of decision making is unmooring us.. keeping us from us..
ie: imagine if we listen to the itch-in-8b-souls 1st thing everyday & use that data to connect us (tech as it could be.. ai as augmenting interconnectedness)
the thing we’ve not yet tried/seen: the unconditional part of left to own devices ness
[‘in an undisturbed ecosystem ..the individual left to its own devices.. serves the whole’ –dana meadows]
there’s a legit use of tech (nonjudgmental exponential labeling) to facil the seeming chaos of a global detox leap/dance..
ie: whatever for a year.. a legit sabbatical ish transition
otherwise we’ll keep perpetuating the same song.. the whac-a-mole-ing ness of sea world.. of not-us ness.. of part\ial ness.. perpetuating survival triage.. for (blank)’s sake..
