A year ago today, @mariafarrell.bsky.social and I published "We Need To Rewild The Internet" with @noemamag.com, edited by @latams.bsky.social.

First things first, if you haven't read it yet, today's a great to find out why it's still a hit a year on: www.noemamag.com/we-need-to-r...

The internet has become an extractive and fragile monoculture. But we can revitalize it using lessons learned by ecologists.

OLMoTrace connects phrases or even whole sentences in the language model’s output back to verbatim matches in its training data. It does this by searching billions of documents and trillions of tokens in real time and highlighting where it finds compelling matches.

We really need web 4.0.

It should include the best features of all three previous versions.

The open source technology of Web 1.0.

The scale and network effects of Web 2.0.

Micro payments (not using crypto) like "Web 3.0".

Time to kill the tech giants.

Interesting! Not my area, would love to hear further thoughts on this.

I was reading this brilliant piece by @mariafarrell.bsky.social and @robin.berjon.com, and it made me think of ways in which I'm trapped by monolithic tech.

I remember looking into SSB back in 2018ish. And beaker-browser soon after that.

With time I ended up losing track of those projects (due to PhD race + none of my friends really got what I found so interesting about P2P), but it is great to see this spiritual successor getting traction!
