We believe that with the development of artificial intelligence, it is important to ask ourselves whether it is crucial to maintain the ability to distinguish between an online account created by a human and an online account created by an algorithmic machine.
In reality, there is a real risk that the massive development of artificial intelligence will lead to a significant increase in online accounts that are generated by algorithmic machines and will be passed off as accounts belonging to real people. This will lead to a flood of communication and community platforms, the value of which will be significantly diminished as a result.
We use proof in the form of performing an activity in the physical world outside of the digital realm to create an identity. Although there are now a variety of services and mechanisms to verify and establish identities purely online – for example, by using video recordings, audio recordings, etc. – we are concerned that with the development of technological and algorithmic capabilities, this method will not be sufficiently reliable in the future. Additionally, the actual identity of an individual is not relevant to us as our identities are pseudonymous.
We strictly adhere to strong and verified cryptographic security for the entire process of identity creation and subsequent management based on a server-less architecture. We do not store any personal information on our servers.
