What the android/apple appstores have taught me compared to the old symbian appstore is that we don't need more apps, we need decent ones. The current appstores have more.
- graemep 1y agoOne of the advantages of FDroid is that although tiny compared to Play Store, it is much better curated.
- theptip 1y agoDiscovery definitely becomes more important in this world. Fortunately AI helps with that too.
- LtWorf 1y agoWhy do you think it will not soon be biased as search is?
- theptip 1y agoI think AI gives us the opportunity to write our own ranking algorithms. Of course most people will pick an off-the-shelf editorial perspective but I expect these to be much more configurable than the current state with a tiny number of algorithmic gatekeepers.
- LtWorf 1y agoThe cost of AI is training it. If you can't do it yourself (and you can't), you don't decide what the weights are.
- theptip 1y agoYou can steer an AI without training it. It’s called Prompt Engineering. It doesn’t give you full control, but I believe it gives you enough control to do what I proposed for most consumers.
- LtWorf 1y agoPrompt engineering is just the new google fu, but if google wants to ban something it won't be there and if they want to bump something it will be bumped.
