I also question the value put on so called engagement.
In centralised social media one is encouraged to like comment etc for the algorithm not necessarily because they enjoy the content. I often enjoy content but I don't comment, maybe because I have nothing to add, maybe becauee I find typing difficult
I wonder how the future of engagement will look Like? Will the algorithm be able to sense our emotional responses to content, apparently they already know us better than ourselves lol
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
I see where you are going with this but I envision something much less invasive for the gathering of accurate data for constantly relevant and adaptive intelligent algorithms.
Unfortunately the path to freedom and the path that is laid before us by the technocrats are extremely similar in many ways.
It is a slightly distorted parallel universe they seek to impose.
The use of nanotechnology within the human biome for the gathering of accurate data regarding reactions to stimulus - gathered in real time - is already a thing.
So I don't wish to invade or impose on the natural bodily autonomy of the sovereign living man or woman.
The Hive of the future respects the sovereignty of the living man or woman and with this - this living man or woman's bodily autonomy (aka 'I decide what happens to my body' - aka medical consent is required for the inclusion of small micro-organisms or nano-technology in my body for the editing of my genetic make-up or for the gathering of information for study or industry).
So let us NOW make the distinction between the two paths.
EDIT: Having said all this - the Hive of the present may well become a piece of the precursor to the technocrats ball and chain of the future. It's a fine line.
