You’re too kind. 🙏 I don’t know how much value there is in ideas without execution but I’m happy to give it a go! Here’s one — and it’s quite meta, because it’s about what breaks when AI slop makes certain things too cheap. If anyone would like to build on this, I’d be happy to (1) be an adviser (2) take it as a signal to clean up and publish more ideas. https://t.co/ZUxswR3emX

"ext_alt_text": "AI slop wastes people’s time, but it also has deeper structural effects. Many institutions relied on processes with some friction as a form of natural spam protection, but AI has now eliminated those costs. Submitting a paper for peer review, applying for a job, filing a legal complaint, and dozens of other processes can now be automated, which threatens to overwhelm systems and organizations.\n\nThe thesis of this project is that many institutions face strikingly similar threats due to slop and can learn defensive strategies from each other.",
