And when other mediums have been saturated with AI? Books, music, radio, podcasts, movies -- what then? Do we need a (curated?) unadulterated stockpile of human content to avoid the enshittification of everything?
I’m trying to work on monetization for my product now. The “personal Google” idea is really just an accidental byproduct of solving a much harder task. Not sure if people would pay for that alone.
Either that, or a human level AI.
That said… are content creators collectively (all media, film and books as well as web) a thin tail or a fat tail?
I could easily believe most of the actual culture comes from 10k-100k people today, even if there's, IDK, ten million YouTubers or something (I have a YouTube channel, something like 14 k views over 14 years, this isn't "culturally relevant" scale, and even if it had been most of those views are for algorithmically generated music from 2010 that's a literal Markov chain).
