We must return, regretably, to judging the quality of a text on the content within itself, instead of by appeal to the authority who wrote it. This will all change if we can agree GPT-{3,4,...,n} is the greatest author on this planet.
To be honest I find it hard to believe that won't be the case within this century.
- kortilla 6y agoRight, when judging an individual piece of text you should evaluate the merits of the argument. Where this becomes dangerous though is in building what looks like consensus among thousands of users of a service. Text like this makes it feasible to build huge puppet networks that can get upvotes/karma from real users quite easy by playing into their echo chambers. This type of technology could easily be the undoing of anonymous upvote driven forums like reddit/hn.
