GPT might be an information virus (2023)


Obligatory: the views and opinions expressed in this post are my own and do not represent the views and opinions of my employer. In light of all the hype going around about ChatGPT, I wanted to offer my “hot take” on what the next 2-5 years of the web look like.

The work done in these places has been slowly rotting away the value system that Google and Amazon (among others) relied upon: that information you find on the internet is truthful and aligned with your interests. I suspect the end result of this is that our society is about to lose it’s ability to disseminate information at large scale, at least using any of the techniques that have been available to us in the past couple of decades. How this actually plays out is far harder to predict, but I see the solution for at least a few of the problems posed by the GPT “information virus” in crypto currencies.
