Do you have a written summary of that? I hate watching videos, and the dark forest book was fun but without a clue I don't understand the change to internet
With proliferation of AI generated content, people aren't able to identify other human generated content, or be certain that their online interactions are with a bot or human. This scenario has apparently been called the dark forest internet because people will try to preserve their communities by more restrictive curating, effectively hiding both from other humans and bots.
I like some of Kyle's videos, and I'm not doing a great job of summarizing all of the points made in this one. I found it worth the 15ish minutes, but probably should have watched it at higher speed.
iirc YouTube had transcripts?
