ChatGPT is the bell announcing the death of anonymity on the web. Anonymous content will be generated content, real discussion will shift to gated communities

ChatGPT is the bell announcing the death of anonymity on the web. Anonymous content will be generated content, real discussion will shift to gated communities with either paywalls or proofs of identity.

That's how it is now, it'll just be more so. You might trust somebody here, but do you trust your average Amazon reviews?

But we also can no longer trust that information published by a verified human was actually created by a human.

I see most replies are missing the point. The text that ChatGPT generates is very human like, so companies will be forced to adopt a mitigation strategy by tying users to a government ID. Such moves would also be bolstered by the government of various nations, which have already been asking for something like this.

Or what we think of today as social media is basically on its last legs. Your AI assistant will just take up so much of your time that you won't be bothered with what other people think. Communication with other humans online right now is largely a form of entertainment. The bar is just so low to be more entertained by future AI assistants than a random human. I am personally certain that I will not be reading this board at some point in the future because the AI assistant will just have far more profound things to say than what random people are going to post on here. It is not like the assistant only has to be one personality too. Could be a whole group of assistants having a group chat. Lamda can probably do this right now considering it can talk as a planet or national park.
