Wenn die Flut der KI-generierten Bullshit-Texte im Netz nur noch etwas weiter steigt, ist es kaputt. Zumindest sind dann Volltext-Suchmaschinen wie Google wertlos, und es wird sich erst so etwas wie ein 'Web of Trust' bilden müssen, das ohne KI-Müll-Wortwüsten zur Ad-Impression-Erzeugung auskommt.

I wonder if the #weboftrust can provide sufficent trust without a centralized identity verification? Very much think the path #wsocial is taking here is the wrong one.

During #PGP key-signing session with @mentat.za.net we just learned that keys.openpgp.org must strip third party signatures from public keys which complicates #WebOfTrust

This is such a pity, because #openpgp keyserver's WKD as a service is great!

#UbuCon #Korea 2024, 어느덧 한 달도 정도 남았는데요. 올해도 작년에 이어 #OpenPGP 키사이닝 파티가 프로그램의 일부로 진행 될 예정입니다. 서로의 신원 확인과 상호 OpenPGP 키 서명을 통해 #WebOfTrust 도 구축하고, 다른 참가자와 네트워킹도 쉽게 시작해 볼 수 있습니다. ...

Talking to Sam Smith about DID:KERI, he said it's duplicity detection mitigates multi CA issuance (trillian current mitigation) against IANA rooted domains (nation state threat vector). Just posting for visibility of perhaps an aligned effort. Maybe a combo could help?

There once was an app called Freetalk on Freenet, which used a WebOfTrust graph for content filtering. When you signaled distrust of an identity, they were hidden from you, and anyone who signaled trust towards you. Was fantastic for auto-deplatforming Nazis in a decentralized way. We need more WoT.

If you are an adult that can handle being responsible for filtering your own feed, there's a plugin for Hyphanet called Sone (Social Network) that does a purely distributed social feed that's mediated by a plugin called WoT (WebOfTrust) that handles identity announcement and service declaration.

Humans have been running a fault-tolerant, censorship-resistant, self-organizing information network for 150,000 years. Let's build a protocol on top of it. #weboftrust

Until these tools learn how to properly trust sources, check them yourself, and ensure their trustworthiness before using them.

AI-generated code could be a disaster for the software supply chain. Here’s why.
LLM-produced code could make us much more vulnerable to supply-chain attacks.
