Spamming events with ai slop puts an unfair burden on the organizers
MajorTakeaway•25m ago
Tomorrow won't go well for you, again.
SpicyLemonZest•13m ago
Tomorrow won’t go well for you! This is the same dynamic as scalping, and is likely to lead to similar results, with event platforms summarily banning anyone who’s found to be using an AI agent and event organizers + the general public investing substantial effort to frustrate them and waste their time.
janice1999•14m ago
I'm not sure whether the people developing these spam tools simply lack the imagination or empathy to see the world through the eyes of other people or can but don't care. Or maybe the "grindset" / "maxxing" mentality demands callousness by its very nature.
ValentineC•10m ago
Ironically, they'd likely burn out from attending events unless they're incredibly extroverted.
yewenjie•31m ago
Nice! I was thinking of building something like this for myself.

I'm a little worried that the complexity could be too much and dissatisfying if I have to spend a ton of time tweaking it.

mnahkies•29m ago
I missed out on an event recently because it was full. I got a notification that a spot had become available shortly before it started, but I had an hour travel to get there so wasn't viable.

I think tools to enable better discovery are a good thing, but I'm not sure that I like the idea of splatting RSVPs just in case.

CPLX•28m ago
Sigh. As someone in the business of creating and hosting conferences please consider not doing this. It's such a giant drain on resources for event organizers to get applications and RSVPs for people that don't actually want to attend, and it could really harm well meaning people to plan for larger events by booking bigger rooms or arranging for food and logistics and so on.

If you decide to take this approach understand and likely to spawn countermeasures or consequences. The most likely outcome of this isn't better for anyone, it's just a world that has more application fees and roadblocks put in front of people who aren't assholes.

Legend2440•25m ago
This feels like it's going to cause a lot of damage to the commons.

If one person does this, no big deal.

If everyone starts doing this, you're basically just creating spam. It'll become like LinkedIn job applications.

jsrozner•22m ago
This is literally AI, in every case. AI is literally the exploitation of the commons, both in the theft of intellectual property for training, and in how it is used.
Legend2440•12m ago
I disagree, many AI uses are beneficial to the commons. Just not this one.

For example, it makes coding available to a much wider audience and increases the amount of useful software that can be built.

Training on data makes the information in that data widely available to general public, which is beneficial.

gruez•7m ago
>If everyone starts doing this, you're basically just creating spam. It'll become like LinkedIn job applications.

I don't get it, so far as I can tell you still need to manually choose whether to RSVP? It's not like it's going to RSVP to all events for you.

toomuchtodo•23m ago
Event organizers will need to start charging refundable deposits. If you show up, you get your deposit back.
ValentineC•13m ago
I like what Jason Fried tried, making people pay $100 upfront, and refunding them $100 bills at the door:

https://world.hey.com/jason/5300-in-100s-3be4c194

https://world.hey.com/jason/5300-in-100s-the-verdict-74c4108...

Even a token fee like $5 would probably dramatically cut frivolous RSVP and noshow rates.

(I am sorta building something around this idea… lots of yak-shaving happening though.)

lastscattering•15m ago
Looking forward to v2, where the agent also attends the events and networks with everyone else's agents.
