Hmmm
I think the called hail-mary shot I'm gonna state is: AI destroys the algorithmic internet
We have a lot of curators (influencers), and there's no automated way of filtering it, therefore, we collapse to non-algorithmic platforms that are driven primarily by interconnected influencer networks

Could I be wrong? Oh, sure, whatever, that's why it's fun to take called-shots this big
But it's the only way I can see out of this. Even after the AI bubble bursts, none of it goes away. So what still works? Social mesh networks, mostly. Mastodon or Bsky being current examples, but we'll see more.

None of this means search engines or the internet goes away, it just means that you need humans in the loop to act like an immune system, to detect/evict the AI bullshit. So the result looks like a curated internet. If anyone remembers The Internet Yellow Pages? Web rings? Those were early examples.

@glassbottommeg You gotta hope. The biggest AI content pushers already lack imagination so are happily eating their own lunch. But there is a lot of tasteless lunch to go around.

Now at this point you might think "oh no, that means circling of wagons! Closed platforms!" but actually weirdly no. Because the nanosecond a corporation controls one of those, their incentive becomes lock-in. Advertising. They want an algorithm, and the second you do that, AI shit will proliferate.

@glassbottommeg back to the curated lists of internet sites from early 2000s

Anyways, I say this because floundering around wondering Oh No What Will Be Left serves nobody and nothing. We know there are ways through this, we just need to pick one, and then start building to that, and hope it's close enough to merge into what comes next. So fuck it. That's what I'll build to.
