Thanks :)
For me, the reputation score is meaningful as far as I know what it took to get it for me. As a social indicator, it is far less effective.
The ability to get straight information that is trustworthy is already so aggravating today. That future reality is really frightening, since large segments of society have proven to be gullible and undiscerning.
It really is frightening, which is why I think the attempts to mitigate damage are being considered, although they are about a decade behind where they needed to start perhaps. Hopefully, Hive or a second-layer app will be able to find a solution that can be built upon. For deepfake videos, I see reputable sources blockchaining and stamping them to verify - and over time, the real stuff will get enough verifications to apply a confidence level, while the fakes will eventually be unearthed and labelled so. Maybe in time, there will be more truth shared than not, which is not the case at the moment as fake spreads faster due to the sensational nature of much of it and our want to believe.
Yes, all true. The most disturbing thing to me right now is that people seem to feel that the very things one should accept as reality are about choice. If you don't like facts, science or actual truth, you just label it fake and then choose the reality you prefer.
This gives me a kind of hopeless feeling like nothing else in history. How can you argue with someone who has chosen their reality the way you select something from a menu? And the people advocating this approach are sitting in top government seats.
Anyway, I absolutely agree that a technological approach is imperative. I hope it comes to pass!
