Creative writing: a young influencer creates a religion for the modern age. (Done the first draft)
After that, a post with methods for honest/effortful communication in the age of LLMs. My actual opinions, but set in the same fictional universe as the above writing. I think HN will like that one.
No, Meta doesn't get a pass on this one after "Jedi Blue" and faking video viewing metrics. These guys are criminals.
Generally, media buyers/advertisers are clueless when it comes to ad fraud. The big platforms have made a lot of money by abusing this fact. (I have over 15 years of experience in online marketing, on the advertiser, publisher and ad-network side. )
I'm working on a short story that explores this!
Different organizations producing fake videos about a real person/event, to nudge you in their desired direction.
It's a creative outlet where I can try out silly/unusual writing. Its a way to record useful how-tos so that I can refer to the steps in the future & help others. And it lowers the "activation enery" on getting curious/exploring: I am more likely to indulge in a deep-dive on a topic if I know at the end I'll "surface" from the dive with useful insights for others to read.
