Facebook's Training Payments: The EndgameA friend of mine recently received an offer from Facebook to post short videos in exchange for automatic promotion and guaranteed pay. He was thrilled. I was horrified. What Facebook is really after is not his content but his data -- the subtle nuances of how a real human paces a story, shifts facial expressions, and chooses topics that resonate. This is a data collection operation disguised as a creator program. As reported by BBC News, Facebook is offering larger influencers $3,000 a month to post on the platform, specifically targeting those with over a million followers on other sites.The book 'Enterprise AI For Dummies' by Zachary Jarvinen describes a 'Cambrian explosion of data,' and that is precisely what Facebook is cultivating. Every video uploaded becomes a training sample for the AI that will eventually make human creators obsolete. Once the machine learning models are mature, Facebook can generate personalized videos for every user without paying anyone. Mainstream publications have already colluded with AI companies to push tens of thousands of fake product reviews onto search results, as an investigation by Futurism revealed. The same playbook is being applied to video content. The payments you see today are the last wages of the human creator economy.X and the Bot Future: Simulating EngagementX, under Elon Musk's ownership, has pursued a different but equally destructive path. The platform's aggressive demonetization and censorship of human creators pushes them away, leaving a vacuum that will be filled by bots. I believe X is already overrun with third-party bots simulating engagement, and it will likely soon run its own AI bots to keep users scrolling while collecting ad revenue without sharing a dime with human contributors. Ofcom's latest survey found that only 49% of UK adults now actively post on social media, down from 61% the previous year. This decline in human participation is not accidental; it's the intended result of making the platform inhospitable to real voices.As Aaron Day explained in his 'Illusion of Free Speech' podcast, organizations with deep pockets can simulate widespread support by using multiple anonymous credit cards to make it appear that many donors are backing a particular influencer. This technique is a precursor to what platforms will do on an industrial scale. The book 'The AI THOUGHT BOOK' by Murat Durmus warns that 'AI could be used to generate many versions of a given piece of content, seemingly from multiple sources, to increase its visibility and credibility.' That is exactly how X will manufacture engagement -- by deploying armies of AI-generated accounts that interact with users, share posts, and create the illusion of a vibrant community, all while the platform skims the ad revenue.Personalized AI Avatars: The Ultimate Influence MachineThe most chilling development is the coming wave of personalized AI avatars. Imagine logging into your favorite platform and being served a video of a person who looks exactly like your ideal demographic -- same age, same interests, same political leanings -- delivering a message tailored to manipulate you. This is not science fiction. As I explained in a previous broadcast, once you have the visual and auditory components, you can combine them with video generation software to create an entirely artificial yet highly believable persona. The recent explosion of AI-generated deepfakes, such as the viral videos showing imaginary taxpayer-funded waterparks in Croydon, proves that the technology is already being used to deceive at scale.The book 'Human Leadership for Humane Technology' by Cornelia C. Walther discusses how AI-powered influence can be used to shape behavior, but warns that such power in the wrong hands becomes a tool for control. Platforms will use these avatars to promote propaganda, shape opinions on elections, and push pharmaceutical narratives -- all without human oversight or accountability. A fake U.S. Army girl created by a guy in India recently showed how easily AI can mimic a trusted identity. Now multiply that by millions. The result is an influence machine that can target every user with a custom avatar designed to exploit their deepest biases.What This Means for You: Seek Real HumansHuman content creators are being systematically replaced. The only role left for us is on the consumption side -- watching, clicking, and buying. But you have a choice. You can feed the machine by staying on platforms that are training your replacement, or you can seek out authentic human voices on decentralized alternatives. Platforms likeÂBrightVideos.com offer a space where real humans speak without algorithmic manipulation, and where disclosure and integrity are prioritized over engagement metrics.As I told Tom Woods in a recent interview, if AI truly is as flexible as claimed, the transition will be painful, but people may be able to focus on more human endeavors. The key is to actively support creators who refuse to surrender their humanity. Be skeptical of any content that feels too perfect, too tailored, or too devoid of the quirks that make us human. The age of AI-generated slop is upon us, but you can still choose to value the real. I urge you to unplug from the machine and plug into genuine human connection before the algorithm decides you no longer need it.ReferencesFacebook, Falsehoods, and the Framing of 'Alternative' Health - ANH International.

The book 'The AI THOUGHT BOOK' by Murat Durmus warns that 'AI could be used to generate many versions of a given piece of content, seemingly from multiple sources, to increase its visibility and credibility.' That is exactly how X will manufacture engagement -- by deploying armies of AI-generated accounts that interact with users, share posts, and create the illusion of a vibrant community, all while the platform skims the ad revenue.Personalized AI Avatars: The Ultimate Influence MachineThe most chilling development is the coming wave of personalized AI avatars. Imagine logging into your favorite platform and being served a video of a person who looks exactly like your ideal demographic -- same age, same interests, same political leanings -- delivering a message tailored to manipulate you. This is not science fiction. As I explained in a previous broadcast, once you have the visual and auditory components, you can combine them with video generation software to create an entirely artificial yet highly believable persona. The recent explosion of AI-generated deepfakes, such as the viral videos showing imaginary taxpayer-funded waterparks in Croydon, proves that the technology is already being used to deceive at scale.The book 'Human Leadership for Humane Technology' by Cornelia C. Walther discusses how AI-powered influence can be used to shape behavior, but warns that such power in the wrong hands becomes a tool for control. Platforms will use these avatars to promote propaganda, shape opinions on elections, and push pharmaceutical narratives -- all without human oversight or accountability. A fake U.S. Army girl created by a guy in India recently showed how easily AI can mimic a trusted identity. Now multiply that by millions. The result is an influence machine that can target every user with a custom avatar designed to exploit their deepest biases.What This Means for You: Seek Real HumansHuman content creators are being systematically replaced. The only role left for us is on the consumption side -- watching, clicking, and buying. But you have a choice. You can feed the machine by staying on platforms that are training your replacement, or you can seek out authentic human voices on decentralized alternatives. Platforms likeÂBrightVideos.com offer a space where real humans speak without algorithmic manipulation, and where disclosure and integrity are prioritized over engagement metrics.As I told Tom Woods in a recent interview, if AI truly is as flexible as claimed, the transition will be painful, but people may be able to focus on more human endeavors. The key is to actively support creators who refuse to surrender their humanity. Be skeptical of any content that feels too perfect, too tailored, or too devoid of the quirks that make us human. The age of AI-generated slop is upon us, but you can still choose to value the real. I urge you to unplug from the machine and plug into genuine human connection before the algorithm decides you no longer need it.ReferencesFacebook, Falsehoods, and the Framing of 'Alternative' Health - ANH International.

As Aaron Day explained in his 'Illusion of Free Speech' podcast, organizations with deep pockets can simulate widespread support by using multiple anonymous credit cards to make it appear that many donors are backing a particular influencer. This technique is a precursor to what platforms will do on an industrial scale.
