AI is not going to go away completely, but we might not see things like "Apple Intelligence" being advertised so breathlessly, not to mention Google's new phone that wants to talk with you about your environment.

The .com bubble of the 1990's would be a good model.

Hi hackernews;

My friend and I built Arcana (https://github.com/arcana-ad) to solve the critical monetization challenge facing GenAI developers today.

While GenAI applications are seeing explosive adoption, developers struggle with a fundamental problem: traditional ad models destroy the user experience in AI-generated content.

Our solution: ●AI-based contextual analysis that understands the intent of AI-generated content ●Seamless integration of our Codex SDK into your stack in less than 5 minutes ●Non-disruptive, native ads that feel like a natural extension of AI interactions ●A revenue-sharing model with no monthly fees for Publishers

We've already onboarded 8 publishers with 150+ advertisements in our network, and over 50 developers have scheduled integration meetings in just two weeks.

If you're building in the GenAI space and looking for sustainable revenue without compromising user experience, I'd love to connect. We're particularly interested in feedback from the HN community on our approach to privacy-first, contextual advertising.

thanks Hackernews longtime reader first time poster

This is going to be an interesting experiment: A widely used social network across the world WITHOUT american content.

Until now, the closest thing we had like this were national our regional networks like Russia's vk, but Vk was never truly popular outside Russian speaking countries.

Now we, for the first time ever, will have the situation where a social network has global reach but without american content.

Will it keep being a english first space? Will it survive/thrive? How the content is going to evolve? What does this means in terms of global cultural influence? Will we see internationalized Chinese content dominating it? Will this backfire for the US?

There are such products. Outside of America whatsapp is a dominant social app but its use internally is almost mute despite being an american social app.

Tiktok america is over 50% of tiktok revenue I think that more than anything else would choke out growth world wide.

For what it's worth, I do not remember a time when YouTube's suggestions or search results were good. Absurdities like that happened 10 and 15 years ago as well.

These days my biggest gripe is that they put unrelated ragebait or clickbait videos in search results that I very clearly did not search for - often about American politics.

Long long time ago; youtube "staff" would manually put certain videos on the top of the front page when they started. Im sure there we're biases and prioritization of marketing dollars but at least there was human recommending it compared to poorly recorded early family guy clips. I dont know when they stopped manually adding "editors/staff" choice videos but I recall some of my favorite early youtubers like CGPGgrey claim that recommendation built the career.

ML is somewhere between the new SOAP and the new cryptocurrency.
