The idea of an AI-free zone on the Internet is growing on me. I think people, and artists in particular, are craving this.
Do you know of any existing initiatives?
I have a few ideas I want to explore in the coming weeks!
Currently: humans only+no AI tools allowed, approachable for ordinary people (sorry Mastodon), directed towards artists/creators, invite-only (and you're partly responsible for the ones you invite), quick feed+long form discussions, maybe playful custom captcha?, maybe auto-poisoning of media uploads by default? (with e.g. https://nightshade.cs.uchicago.edu/whatis.html)
