@danielpunkass can’t wait to chat with you over a few drinks in June about this. I feel like we’re on the same page.
@manton the problem with ads is we’ve been promised a hundred times that “it’ll be different this time.” Remember when Google Ads were supposed to change the world, because they would be so smart you’d only ever see ads for things you actually want? How long did that last?
Ads always mark a turning point for quality on any product. People are right to be skeptical. It never ends well.
@manton I think most of the gang here trusts your judgment on such things. Your approach thus far as been well thought out and, as expected, community focused.
AI demands such cautious optimism. Unfortunately, too many in our circles insist on living on either end of the spectrum of diving in head first with zero care for the consequences, or sticking one’s head in the sand and hoping it goes away.
