A social network that faithfully and intelligently curated posts according to my own continuously updated (explicit) direction would be most excellent.

But it would also juice echo chamber depth and further amplify extremist "engagement".

And the monetary incentives for OpenAI to generate most of the content, the "people", and the ads, including creative hallucinations and novel extremisms, so they directly match each of our curation directions, would enshittify the whole thing within a short minute.

If a startup plan includes "sales" and "customers": Green light go.

If it talks about ways to "monetize": Red trash can.

If only.
