Links have been the currency of the internet since forever. AI changes that - no links - no webpages - just a genie that pops up and gives you the answer. What's the new currency of the AI Web? Truthfully, I don't know. It might be tokens.

Links will still be important. I agree that tokens and currency that is traded extremely fast will be very important for bots to communicate and signal what is important.

Every answer from the genie and sometimes the full conversation with the genie is being turned into a link and being shared. Links aren't going anywhere

Links were the superpower of Web1. We had seen images and text laid out in magazines and newspapers. What was novel was the hyperlink. A magazine page that could link to a different magazine’s page. Similarly, the Newsfeed was the superpower of web2. We had seen “feeds” before. You could watch live TV or radio or subscribe to a physical magazine or even a news site. The Newsfeed was novel because it was an endless feed from many sources of content specifically customized to your attention. It democratized publishing, commoditized content, and it updates constantly based on your usage/attention. Web3’s superpower is the collective use of others’ data — you can think of this as a “shared canvas.” Think “Basepaint for social media.” AI can be thought of in this way too. ChatGPT uses the collective output of the internet to create content specifically for you. The AI web is also usage of others data to create new data. 2 sides of the same coin, 1 side has clear attribution/ownership.

Credits to use the AI of your choice? Or perhaps attention?

Backlinks were the currency, PageRank™️ the denomination.

unless AI solves hallucinations, which i'm not sure it can in the medium term, links will still be important to check the AI's work/references

I think you are spot on in that it is still tokens Ryan. AI may still provide you an answer to your questions but if it is a closed loop large language model (LLM), meaning that it has a collection of data that has been aggregated to one place, it cannot provide you with the latest information. This is why it is important to distinguish the difference in how AI software is implemented. The standard ChatGPT 3.5 is closed loop architecture and uses the information it has based on when the last bit of data that was uploaded to it. However if you use Copilot it uses an open loop structure and finds links from the internet prior and uses those uniform resource locators (URLs) to providing you with an answer based on that information. I am not sure how it will be implemented in the future but my guess is that in order to access certain pieces of information you will need to utilize tokens in some way.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but links and webpages are still needed, because AI can’t access de-indexed websites. Can it? Can it access the dark web? 🤔

Tokens are just small bits of language in an AI text model. How do these become currency?

Tokens no doubt - Liquidity - Easy Onboarding - Easy Outboarding While NFT projects can be tricky when momo ends & you cannot exit. Tokens allow for much better ease
