Are We Better Off Without the Internet? Quasar With Fries: Episode 12
This is fine. Everything is fine.
Wayne Grayson • Feb 05, 2025
In this episode of Quasar with Fries, Rich and Wayne dive into the existential crisis that is our digital reality. Is AI a net positive or a net negative? What does it mean when you fill social media networks with AI? How does that impact the currently toxic incentives social media platforms entice content creators with?
The guys also discuss the latest AI news including the mysterious DeepSeek large language model (LLM) and how it is threatening to pop the AI bubble. Gasp! Plus, they discuss Meta’s plans to deploy AI profiles to its platforms. The boys also discuss the current status of the “TikTok” ban in the U.S. and how the service and platforms like it have changed what it means to be a “creative.” In many cases these incentives blur the lines between art and audience. How are we coping with that? And would we be better off if the internet just went away? This is a big one. Get into it.
