A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm never joining another vc-backed social network whatever they promise.

Seriously... The closer to three edge we get, the faster enshitification goes. No one is writing algorithms with users in mind... Not for a paycheck anyways

We're getting to the point where we all need to carve out bubbles of curated Internet for our friends and family

So an RSS Reader (Like CommaFeed) and a Social Bookmarking like Postmarks?

Nah, I'm thinking much bigger. I've got an AI that can transcribe video, I'm working on one to summarize and put facts into a knowledge graph, I've got one that can hold a conversation, and I've got a script that scrapes sites and does natural language processing. I just need an agent to tie the pieces together and some control scripts to manage the containerized pieces

The idea is, my assistant will go out, read up on programming topics and build knowledge graphs with references to the source, and I'll fix my biggest issue - shittified searches crippling my work speed

Then, I'll send it off to find content. It'll transcribe/summarize videos and rank them, research topics and come back with reports, and trawl my socials to find new things I might find interesting

I plan to take all that, then let my assistant create video channels to watch and additional content to read if Lemmy is slow. And if my friends and family show interest, I'll add in hosting and an internal social media and convince them to run additional nodes at home

I've been working on it for a while because I saw this coming, I've got most of the key pieces already.

And that's the bubble of Internet I'm building - AI curation of my Internet life, it'll happily work away the hours deshittifying a bubble of Internet

This was my main concern. What's the monetization strategy?
