RE: https://scholar.social/@khinsen/116249052896745512 This is an interesting experiment: bring back the old webring/blogroll concept based on trust between people, to help spot websites written by people in an ever deeper sea of generative AI content on the web. I just added it to my site (linked on my profile), and started building a list of the few sites I read regularly that are unambiguously crafted by humans. Happy to list other people's websites too, so long as they are written without AI, so feel free to point me to your site!

    After I set up human.json on my website yesterday, I figured I also don't post generative AI content on mastodon, and don't use it to code either. So I listed my mastodon and codeberg profiles in my human.json, because why not? It works fine and I like seeing this green dot of the browser extension more often (helps getting used to it!).

  • @Guillawme@fediscience.org Couple of years ago when the LLM craze started in earnest I remember thinking, and writing, that webrings and a web of trust was going to make a strong come back ... here we are, formalized. A great initiative.

  • @Guillawme@fediscience.org you inspired me to add a human.json to my site: quantixed.org. Hopefully I did it correctly. I added your site and @albertcardona@mathstodon.xyz 's I'm pretty sure you're both real! Feel free to add mine.
