✅ The Solution to Bots and Spam? Walk-and-talk videos @walkntalk coupled with a versioned up—2x better—Turing Test: 🧪 The Four Ring Test: 1. 🟤 Earth — Seeing & Doing → Are they grounded in the real world? What are you seeing and doing? 2. 🌬️ Air — Hearing & Saying → What are you hearing and saying? 3. 🔥 Fire — Feeling & Beaming → What are you feeling and beaming (expressive emption)? 4. 💧 Water — Thinking & Dreaming → What are you thinking and dreaming (expressive thought)? ❌ What Doesn’t Work • Economics? Bots = better at games than we are. Raised costs just raise stakes • Algorithms? Algorithms favor engagement, not humanity. TikTok proves we favor algo-boosted strangers. Engaging bots beat boring humans. • Biometrics? That’s just a timestamp. In vulnerable communities, verified identities will be sold. Now you’ve got a verified bot with a real person’s face—a bigger problem? not a solution, and the birth of new identity trading market

something that farcaster has taught me is that there is a second axis to the spam problem. it's not really adequate to ask if an account is controlled by a bot or a human, because bots can post interesting things and humans can post spam. the second axis is authenticity – "does this content accurately reflect who you say you are / your intent?" when it comes to content feeds, only authenticity matters. when it comes to connecting with people, personhood *and* authenticity matter

but you are so good at speaking!!!!!!!!!! people (like you) who think deeply and mathematically and hyper logically often hesitate to just speak out their half-formed inchoat thoughts which makes so much sense and there are so many adages and norms supporting that behavior but in the era of thinking machines outsourced brains thinking out loud is a key skill think of its as vibe talking like this beejees song but swap vibe talking for jive talking maybe we should rebrand walk and talks as vibe talks i’m going to make a vibe talking theme song and post it on tortoise https://youtu.be/oALKAh_bL5g?si=eFcaRS0ARwbKn4Yf
