AI Analysis

●MidBold Bet

A social badge for human authorship in an AI-saturated internet.

Strengths
  • •Clear, single-purpose value prop: signaling human intent without technical overhead.
  • •Includes a polite 'ask' tool to query authorship without confrontation.
Weaknesses
  • •Relies entirely on social trust; no cryptographic proof or verification mechanism.
  • •Solves a signaling problem, but doesn't address the root cause of AI spam.

Post Description

Link to this to say "It ain't from Gen AI" nice and proper: https://notgen.ai

For when you thought you were talking to a human, but ain't so sure, there is: https://notgen.ai/ask

When you don't care about GenAI, just want to know if they fully reviewed the dang thing: https://authorial.cx/ask

I reckon understanding how others understand the thing is key in these strange times. Made these to test the theory, and maybe avoid some dust-ups. Wondering what y'all think about all this.
