alt Hacker NewsInvert the economics. Right now there is value in posting LLM generated content that is more than the cost of using the model.
If platforms had a subscription model that you had to pay for in order to do more than just read comments, there’d be a lot less LLM content. There would also be a lot less of all content. But maybe that’s the price you pay (literally) to get rid of AI slop.
Good idea, but models are only going to get cheaper. Unless governments add an information environment pollution tax.
Oh hey, now thats an idea.
