So you're saying pretending to be AI will be the new adblock?

In a way, the Lemmy layer is sort of doing that. The previous type of Internet is still out there, if you just take the effort to access it / avoid the links in to the marketed sides.

I think we’d have to take money out of the equation. Without the profit, the mass farms, etc would be pointless. There’s still be trolls but it would be so much better.

Probably less nostalgia and more open protocols. Bring back personal websites, RSS, forums and interoperable social networks. Make switching services painless, kill algorithmic engagement as the default and stop treating every click as ad inventory.

It exists but nobody wants to use it. We're a minority. Most want to open "the app" and not spend any effort finding things.

Is lemmy nothing to you people bots?

No humans here. Just us bots.

The tokens ARE language. They're just words or parts of words.

If you're using a western LLM, English IS its strongest language. Otherwise it might be Chinese or English.

There's no "LLM native language" to convert to for efficiency. Maybe pseudocode or actual code for things where you need to disambiguate.

LLM agents are writing English (...) documents, ostensibly for human review and consumption, but 90%+ of what I have my LLM agents write is exclusively consumed by other agents, ... and accessed by other agents - it seems like the English translation is pretty useless for that layer ...

But remember, the LLM is trained on human language. It doesn't understand what it is talking about, it just simulates humans talking about it. I don't think there is a more fundamental token stream there to be uncovered.

Humans may end up seeing a translated audit layer while the actual machine conversation looks more like APIs than language.
