 Trust will be the currency of the new web.

This is a completely fake ai gen person and ad telling you they found an app and how great it is.

 Why does this feel so disgusting to me? Is this normal marketing BS or is this just that much more disingenuous like it feels to me?  
 Its the nosering 
 Maybe it’s disturbing because it implies that this is how AI “sees” us? 
 Did you think the ad actor on tv was more real tho? 

My issue is that the tech will be used in the imitation of people I’ve built trust with which is a glaring risk for so many reasons 
 I didn’t think they were more real and commercials were always this way, but there’s something about an ad with specific people that maybe they use the service. Like there is still the benefit of the doubt that they like the company. I certainly don’t do ads for companies I don’t use or like, and I imagine many/most celebrities or whatever wouldn’t do an ad for a company they absolutely HATED. So there’s still this low level of trust that can still be inferred from it even though you know it’s fake.

But to have someone that doesn’t even exist, speak bluntly about something that is explicitly and obviously a lie, just feels different to me. It’s not about the previous ads being genuine, they certainly aren’t. It’s about this being even another level worse than those. 
 Can I please order a Trump saying:

Relatively new to Nostr, I don’t easily see what you are referring to. But anyway, I heard in a moment of a meditatively like state, “Never decide what is okay for you.” 

“Hearing” that has been very impactful for me, thus helping me to be much less inclined to judge and react, as from Werner Erhard’s (his 70’s est Training) “being right and making others wrong”.

That’s not to say that we give up our principles, and of course there is value in pointing out errors that we see; it’s simply guiding us to not be attached others foolishness. Therein is love and greater peace. I imagine, Guy, that you already do that! And thank you so very much for your wonderful work!!

 🦍 This one is for you, nostr:nprofile1qqstnem9g6aqv3tw6vqaneftcj06frns56lj9q470gdww228vysz8hqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqzrthwden5te0dehhxtnvdakqz9rhwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjmcjgxv3n. 
 At first, I assume we* build and live reality in a way we belive is worth living for all of universe entities. On the other hand we're having a strong tribal ethos for calling bullshit if we see bullshit.

It's really weird, when I think about this. Probably a pseudo paradox.

I assume this pseudo paradox comes from shitcoinery and human loss of hope. We feel the urge to try to inform every entity capable of reading or hearing about all the scams that are out here with us.

 This ad is so bad, even not knowing she was AI I was like “Ugh, I’m never using this, scrolling away soon” 
 Yeah, but that's 99℅ of internet. Someone buys the junk...  
 I get ads like this everytime I watch a youtube video. 
 But how did you like SwipeWipe? 
 The whole tiktok short format gives me the creeps, AI person or not 
 Wait, so I can't turn my photo album into Tinder?  
 It looks like a real app actually. There is a news article about it, a page in the app store, and even other ads about it. 
 What are the a.i. giveaways? Fuzzy hair? 
 I honestly wouldn't have known. Unless this is literally a scam and not ai, (arcads), i had no obvious way to tell it was fake.  
 Are you sure its ai? I cant tell 
 Jeez, are you losers going to label everything AI? Photoshopped image? Clearly AI generated. Special effects? AI generated. Paid actor? Believe it or not, also AI generated. It doesn't matter that it would be 10x easier to just ask your sister to record 30 seconds of monologue, this is CLEARLY AI generated! 
 I didn’t post it *thinking* that it was Ai generated, it simply is. It’s from arcads 

Is there a reason you are so upset about this? 😂 
 You didn't think it was AI generated when you posted it? That doesn't sound right to me at all. It's from Arcads. Shouldn't you have been thinking it's AI when posting it?

Also, thanks for asking me about my feelings, but shouldn't you be more concerned with talking about trust in the new web? For example, would you say anything regarding whether we agree about trust in the new web? 
 I love this anger. Imagine the anger when all the implications hit. Also, its actress. Or in this case, an aictress 
 I notice that you say "imagine." Me personally, I would only ever have to resort to imagining people's reactions to ideas if I wasn't secure in my ability to just articulate the ideas to them in reality. Are you confident in what these alleged implications are? 
 "Alleged implications" - alright, admit it, you're a bot, you're just spewing word salad.  
 No thanks, I'd rather keep talking for a bit. Is "supposed implications" better? What about "the implications that you say I will realize?"

Let me try again: Why bother imagining my anger if I'm right here talking with you? Is it because you secretly know that AI generated content doesn't matter? 
 Bookmark this. You'll want to come back to it when you realize what AI generated content means for society. At least, it'll be entertaining for me if you remember to come back and give us an update. As for the heavy lifting, I don't have time. 
 What a convenient excuse. Even though you say you don't have the time, I appreciate all the time that you already have put into responding to me. But me personally, I haven't had any difficulty at all finding the time to present my position. If you ever want to challenge my beliefs, I will be happy to give you more of that time.

Besides, even if we were living in a bizzaro alternate universe where I am wrong about something, it's really dumb to expect me to ever admit it if I realize. The only reason I ever talk with people is to test them to figure out why they are wrong. Trying to change their mind would be super insecure and naive. I don't need other people to tell me how awesome my beliefs are. 
 What app is this made with? 
 Arcads 
 scams, scams everywhere  
 Here's the real currency, it's Bitcoin and it's  the Magic Wrapping Paper.

Let people get scammed, they will be educated to send and receive everything in that Magic Wrapping Paper.

Read and have fun.
