Google incentivized creating marginal zero cost content to acq traffic (monetized by publishers w/ ads). Initially it led to great content but soon devolved to cat & mouse game w/ spammers. Designing new incentive models for data sharing w/ chatGPT etc is an opportunity to reset this.

Platforms have come a long way in enabling new creators. Yet there is so much left to do to create a thriving and healthy ecosystem that actually promotes talent, creativity and new ideas. Must listen talk to understand this — by Casey Neistat and Rich Roll. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PS9OUF_lhFc

The NFT section of @vitalik.eth 's profile is ... bizarre... I wonder if all of it is just NFT spam or if any were actually bought...

Just in the past 10yrs being a Creators has gone from a hobby -> profession. The individual Creators grew the fastest as UGC became pro, amplified by formats & distribution commanding a very large % of viewer time. Whats most exciting is that... this is just the beginning.

Paying for access to content / community / creator is an expense. In contrast NFT is an asset (I can own it, it can appreciate in value & I can contribute towards that through participation, I can sell it). Ownership inverts the relationship.

Personally I am a Signal and WhatsApp user but wonder how folks feel about Telegram here since it’s not purely E2EE. Of course handles are a useful feature but still… https://twitter.com/moxie/status/1474067549574688768?s=46&t=eftckhpCGRfzAyzLRF7bEA

Messaging protocol and SDK for Web3 should be developed as pure public good. Created & run by a DAO a la ENS (or even traditional OSS) vs a business (that has to look for a moat / biz model).

Love the product and direction that Golden (https://golden.com/) is taking. I think this is one most interesting experiments in orchestration through tokens and incentives. This could create the blue print for coordination and orchestration at global scale.
