Curation by computers gives beige output.

· Bits and Bobs 10/6/25
  • Curation by computers gives beige output.
    • Average, bland, inoffensive.
    • In a world where the centralized, best-in-class model who knows your preference gets so good at writing software, everything will be beige.
    • No humanity of people creating it.
    • The depth of feedback humans in the system give sets how far from beige you can get.
    • Chickens pecking at videos in their infinite feed gives you something beige.
    • Curation and caching needs to happen in a higher pace layer, outside of the model weights, and it needs to involve deeper reflection from real humans.
