GENERATIVE AI

A couple of days ago @nikitabier announced that they would be penalized from here on, at least in payments. I got the message. Which is one reason why I have my AI reading all of the AI community here on X and telling you what's important. It gives you a dramatically different view of the AI world here on X than you can get from X: alignednews.com/ai Having your own AI reading the communities you care about gives you a lot better view of what's actually being discussed that doesn't often make it to your feed. No longer are we seeing what's popular, but what AI has picked for us to see. In many ways that's an improvement but I miss the old world too. Curators who read thousands of posts every day and reshare the best are being "turned down." It is unclear whether AI generated custom feeds can ever get any distribution to make them profitable. Running custom AI's costs money. Mine costs $100 or more per day in tokens and $300 a day in API calls (the site is wholly generated via the X API since terms of service here forbids scraping the data). It's an end of an era where humans really have much to do with what other humans see. Now we are in a completely AI run world. I am seeing a few understanding this and building an @OpenClaw or a Hermes system to build new personalized news services for their owners. That will be a must for those of us who really want to see the news in an unbiased way (every AI is biased, including mine, since I taught it over two months of talking to it about what I wanted it to present to me and you). I need to turn this into a business that at least covers the costs that @blevlabs and I are running up, or else it will have to be shut down, which would be a shame, since I know it brings a few people value. Working on that the rest of the week.
