The solution is probably legal, not technological.
We need a legal solution to automated spam, AI or not. It does tangible damage to communication systems when 99/100 of your e-mails doesn't come from a human being.
- armchairhacker 17d agoWhat about spam from other countries? Residential botnets?
- AlienRobot 17d agoThat's a problem for whoever gets in charge of solving spam to solve. Not me.
- jMyles 17d agoIf humanity's "solution" to AI is to go to the government of all institutions - the very thing we have hoped for the internet to overcome, for a century before its invention - then we'll truly have fallen into a poetic trap.
- AlienRobot 17d agoI've never hoped for that. The opposite of the government owning the internet is cloudflare owning the internet.
- jMyles 17d agoThe opposite of one large unaccountable entity owning the internet is not a different one doing so. To suppose that this next phase of human evolution can be "owned" at all is a bit of a stretch. These behemoths can threaten us with violence, and carry out those threats, but they can't stop radio waves or the use of language as expression. They can't remove knowledge form the universe or change change the laws of mathematics.
