It’s a forever cat and mouse. Everyone learns and adapts. And so do the bots.

There are these images and video’s of botfarms using stacks and stacks of android phones in old crypto miner pc’s. Probably to ‘avoid’ being detected because the devices are all unique.

which is why the "coordinated inauthentic behavior" idea is so valuable.

one person, one hundred phones.
one hundred people, one hundred phones produces the same result with the right coordination.

hence: authenticity is the key. sticky, boring, inconsistent, sometimes angry, usually happy, but indelibly HUMAN authenticity.

also note how v couches this stuff in terms of user experience. as a brain guy, I think "theory of mind" is a curious part of the spam puzzle. if I can't sense a human or - worse - it presents as something other than the truth (human when robot), I tilt negative.

authenticity is a vibe. one in tension with commercial incentive.

The next part of this battle will be when true AI enters the battle. 

Currently these are easily identified as they just replicates what is already there. But the moment it can argue and respond in a meaning full manner this human is human concept will be harder to identify.

(Side note: say true AI as I don’t believe this actually exists as of now. It’s just input<>output, and clever marketing for machine learning)

A machine is always in a box (literally) and does not think out of it.

As humans we tend to always want to learn in some capacity. Thus a box won’t fulfil this ever desire we have.

(Fuck fever is making me philosophical)

depends. common sci-fi trope is agency in machines and personal connection with them. Data from Star Trek. Johnny Five. Wall-E. Her. etc etc.

If you're happy and fulfilled, what's the difference? Why care about sticky humans if the machines are nicer?

Got no answers.
