> Maybe this article will be read by humans. Maybe it will be summarized by an AI into two polite lines for someone curious on the other side of the planet.

Maybe it was generated by an AI in the first place.

lbrito•1h ago
Yeah I thought the same. The short sentences, like "The Web may become like IRC, FTP, Gopher, or BBSs. Not dead. Just smaller.", kind of gave that impression.

Unless the author's taking styling tips from AI prose.
alabut•1h ago
I get the impression a lot of people use ai to clean up writing when English isn’t their first language, which unfortunately means they can’t see the robotic generic tone it creates. E.g. the references to user groups in Buenos Aires.

One way they could maybe counteract it is approach it like code golf - can you use an LLM to make it much, much shorter? Because being overly verbose dilutes the handful of points you’re trying to make.

Actually i think AI will make the web the backbone of humanity once a system is in place that gets all humans paid for our daily content (conversations, pics, videos, songs, movies, etc). All of us create content daily via living. The web now is a system that all of humanity owns and its not controlled by one company or organization. It can be a place where every human publishes our daily content to our own websites for AI to pay us to access it and feed off of it.

I see Trump saying he's going to be talking to AI companies about them providing Americans with stock. That's one way AI pays us and this other idea I mention above and wrote about on my Substack https://ryanspahn.substack.com/p/ai-to-pay-for-all-americans...

The US President has no legal means to give every American stock - and even if he did, then what? What good is my 1 share of OpenAI going to do me?

That is a very... optimistic interpretation of what Trump is describing in your link.

> once a system is in place that gets all humans paid for our daily content (conversations, pics, videos, songs, movies, etc).

That is never going to happen, lol. That's what Youtube was supposed to be, and the trend is to pay content creators less and less, while keeping them creating the same amount of content.

> It can be a place where every human publishes our daily content to our own websites for AI to pay us to access it and feed off of it.

Social media will still exist. People will want to share content with each other, and it has to live somewhere. Sure, a lot of the interactions with LLM's will go back into the training data, that's already happening. But people aren't going to stop publishing content - because what happens then when there's no more training data out there?

You can't train an AI model without updated repositories of information. There is a bit of a question on whether an AI agent should be the interface for those repositories. Today, that's a very expensive proposition, and probably a silly direction to go (at some point, cheaper ways of doing things are going to win out for some use cases).

> I see Trump saying he's going to be talking to AI companies about them providing Americans with stock.

And this is proof positive why it's a bad idea that will never gain traction.

What the article's prompt wanted to warn of, has already happened. For a decade at least.

Personal blogs aren't going to disappear, there's right now more of them than ever! And there will be more! But the preponderance of sheer cruft will reduce their percentage.

Discoverability of the content you want has always been the problem, and it still will be.

tonymet•1h ago
none of these platforms exists without the people and the content they produce. I’m less worried about the platforms and more worried about the contributors , what they are contributing, and which ones are favored, and why.
plagiarist•1h ago
It is already gone. Actual content has been flooded out by millions if not billions of affiliate ad listicles where, completely coincidentally, the top ten best $product are also the first ten $product on the Amazon search page.
spwa4•10m ago
There is more content than ever before accessible. It's just harder to find. If anything, this is a total failure of Google (and other search sites)

I wonder what this will mean for the future, both of Google and for finding information on the web.

VulgarExigency•1h ago
The web as I knew it is already dead. It has been dead for years. I don't understand why the blog owner had the AI that wrote the article focus on technology like Flash vs HTML5, those had no bearing on what actually mattered, which were communities.

What killed the web was the rise of social media and social media-like sites like Reddit. No one makes a website for their hobby or game/book/movie they're a fan of, and a forum and/or IRC channel for their site, anymore. They just post about it on Facebook or Twitter, or maybe on a subreddit for it, but the sense of community that used to be part of it is totally gone. You don't really get to know people like you used to on a forum. Niche Discord servers don't have this problem as much, but they suffer greatly in terms of discoverability.

AI has made it even worse, because now you can't even be sure you're talking to a person, but in my opinion the centralization around social media was far more damaging.

This is just not true. We even have a dedicated web search for that: https:// wiby.me

nancyminusone•1h ago
yeah, but they won't be paying you. Not today, not ever. That's a pretty fundamental premise of the whole AI phenomenon.
