Machines vs Humans
Social Media used to be the best place to interact with people.
A tool to find the right person for the right job,
To find powerful ideas and information, given away completely for free.
You could read a tweet or watch a video and it had value.
Time, care and effort went into it.
An entire human life giving birth to a single piece of content forever preserved in time.
That's gone now.
The internet is a world of machines now.
Entire warehouses of GPUs running in order to post "content" on everyone's timelines.
Machine-built text, images and video designed to be maximally viral.
The signal has been drowned out by the noise.
The ideas you read are artificial and if you respond to them, a machine greets you.
THE REAL WORLD has become the only bastion for what the entire internet used to be.
A place for people to talk to people.
A place where every idea, text or video was made by humans for humans.
Experience the power of humanity:
