Hello Nostr, if you have not read anything by Neil Postman, I highly recommend you do.

“Amusing ourselves to death” is such a fantastic read, and I frequently revisit it.

Has anyone built an agent on Nostr that doesn’t post, but strictly consumes/navigates to find interesting content, and surfaces it to you? I feel like LLMs can truly be “the great filter” and “the great curator” we need to no longer be inundated with endless feeds.

Sure, it's not inspiring but I'll share. I actually started from the bottom position in retail and worked up to account management role which I hated and led me to rejecting a chance with their corp edu management. I opted to shift back to team and customer focused as a lead & pro until I ended up a...

Nostr is the rebirth of the open web. No algorithms, no gatekeepers, just pure signal. 💜 ❤️

Nostr quick fix that no one wants to do, looks like a shitpost but is probably real: The major nostr clients shadowban all Bitcoin slogans, price chat, pfps, references, "memes", AI images, ai pfps, ...

I was working on something I thought would help but unfortunately had to focus on other things. Essentially wanted to use a combo of clustering algorithms + LLMs to topic model all of nostr and create topical relays and clients focused on particular types of conversations.

very similar to how subreddits work, but without any moderators. The clustering algos/LLMs would organize content based on embeddings (replacing moderators) and it would be much easier to find the stuff you care about without knowing who to follow.

clustering might be better bc it's not as "black box", but it's a great way to use machine learning without going down the recommendation algorithm slope

ok hear me out what if we tone down the crypto chatter and talk about, you know, normal things? perhaps people will find this place more interesting and stay here #grownostr

similar to my reply on another post; clustering + LLMs could topic model all of nostr and create topical relays and or clients focused on particular types of conversations.

kinda similar to how subreddits are, but no moderators, just have AI sort/organize content based on embeddings - would make it much easier to find the stuff you care about without knowing who to follow

anybody can create a Reddit or whatever clone on nostr. the tough nut to crack is the network effect. that's their moat.

unfortunately got away from it - but wanted to make something on Nostr that used clustering to automatically create "subreddits" and organize conversations; basically unsupervised Reddit.

Could also use LLMs to do smaller matching processes, but you'd be able to essentially post into the void, not having to know "where" to post, and it gets automatically sorted into the most relevant place based on semantics

Could even do real-time group chats and stuff; blindly post something, if somebody else posts something similar, you all get dumped into a closed room to talk about it

No idea what they are or how well they are doing.

Nostr devs I need your input on UpScrolled

“UpScrolled is now the most downloaded mobile app in the United States! In the last hour it surpassed ChatGPT, Gemini and Threads”.

Specifically not built on a protocol (didn’t mention nostr) for performance reasons.

Thoughts?

It’s ok, no need for him, I don’t share many of his opinions personally. Nostr must find a way to be useful for normies, AI might help
