Human authenticity doesn’t easily boil down to being “content” so there’s likely to be major issues resulting from your definitions. Humans are also easily found, being human and authentic, in the real world. The online one is destined to become an AI nightmare of human-free generative “content” from this point onwards.

Maybe in public spaces, but in private online spaces human creativity is alive and well. Game devs are deving games. Music makers make music. Artists still sell commissions. Hell, even in some more AI focused discord servers I’m in, I see people doing cool things with AI images and more traditional image bashing and masking afterwards. What’s going on is that the creators of these big public platforms finally found a “holy grail” use case for the ~20 years of human communication and behavioral data they’ve been collecting.

> Human authenticity doesn’t easily boil down to being “content” so there’s likely to be major issues resulting from your definitions. I didn't claim human authenticity is equal to content creation. I meant that with the further rise of 'AI nightmare human free generative content' as you perfectly describe it, there will be a backlash where people seek out more authentic experiences. You can already see this as a reaction to social media where people gravitate towards private group chats and discord servers. > Humans are also easily found, being human and authentic, in the real world I think you underestimate how much of our lives our influenced by the online world. Digital media saturates our lives. That said, I would love to imagine people gravitating towards local community as a reaction of the death of the internet. I'm actually in the process of starting an LPFM radio station. > The online one is destined to become an AI nightmare of human-free generative “content” from this point onwards. Well said.
