This will end with the only way to authenticate the people we're talking to is meeting them at the coffeeshop in the morning.

  That might be okay. We'd lose a lot, obviously, but if you could 100% trust that the person you met at a coffee shop is real, and you could 99% trust that the person they met the day before is real, and you could 98% trust the person that person met is real, you've got three degrees of Kevin Bacon.

    But can you trust that the things they say aren't just laundered AI blogspam?

      Well I trust that the things my friends say aren't laundered AI blogspam. And if they trust the things their friends say, I can likely trust that too.

  is anyone using keybase any more? i put it on my website and socials to do just that but it doesn’t seem to have stuck around.

    It's not really the right kind of authentication. A bot can use keybase too.
