Jaron Lanier: How the Internet Failed and How to Recreate It

Ғылым және технология

On October 29, 2018, Jaron Lanier visited UC Santa Cruz and explored how the internet as it exists today might destroy our world. In developed countries, its arrival has corresponded to bizarre political dysfunction, while in the developing world, ethnic rivalries that had been waning have been re-ignited in the most grotesque fashion. It wasn’t supposed to be this way. The internet was supposed to empower people and enrich culture and democracy. What went wrong was based on a simplistic, nerdy philosophy. The solution can be discerned, and it involves creating and strengthening societal structures that are in between giant tech platforms and individuals.

    I’m often nostalgic for the internet of the early 90s before it was commercialized. It was largely composed of academics, programmers, and researchers, and you had to up your game before you could even have a conversation with anyone. I would sit there and download mathematical models and research papers, and I would read and explore for hours like someone in a library. No ads, no social media, no cat videos. There was such a sense of possibility and promise and optimism. I miss those times.

    That's just really how it was back then - if you ask most people what was different 20-30 years ago when compared to now, the vast majority of them at some point will mention there use to be a much larger sense of optimism and all around _hope;_ not only for the country, but for the world as a whole. The real irony that honestly sickens me sometimes, is that nearly everyone hates the way the things are and the direction we're heading, but nobody wants to assume any sort of responsibility so society keeps speedballing in the manner it has been. People have lost all sense of accountability, which I feel could also be attributed to the internet in one way or another. It's also heavily caused by the whole "us vs them" mentality that's been drilled into peoples minds; where they feel a constant need to single out a particular demographic to pin blame on and feel superior towards.

This is the central thrust of Jeron's argument, and it is accurate. The internet is so insidious because it gives us the illusion of being free even as we are shackled by chains.

    I am a web developer and been thinking about this for years now, I know the shift would be huge, and I have no idea how to get there, but what I believe we would have to do is to shift the role, insights, and tools of marketing to work for the consumer to inform him of the available offers that businesses offer, objectively but simply communicate the pros and cons of different products and services and make it easier for the consumer to choose, not to manipulate him, it would have to be the consumer, not the business who funds the marketing efforts. Then we could have a more rational free trade system, where consumption actually informs the market positively, rather than having massive manipulation engines as we have now to distort the desires and consumption patterns of the population.

    If it weren't for work, I wouldn't be on social media ever. I'm pretty young (24) so ​​I grew up when these things happened (this and the smartphone). But I feel so old when I see new social media like tik tok, snapchat, or instagram. I hate to see fake lives of people I don't really know and who don't really know themselves. It's so sad how people don't take the time to understand how they are feeling, to face themselves, and afterwards they are amazed that they are unhappy and feel deeply alone, when they are not. You know, they're just completely drugged on these things, it's messing up their dopamine system. What I fear most for the future is not AI, but the domination of networks in our lives, how it rots the mind is clear and studied. The most terrible thing is that I do not see how to "go back" other than individually. Regulation would always be fight. Also I notice that we want more and more real things because the world is becoming more and more false (money destroy art too, but it's quite off topic, even if there is a link to be made), more cowardly too. And it scares me having to be brave in a cowardly world...

    I suspect that there are people who refuse to acknowledge this while may be fearing that this could be true. I mean imagine working for long time to connect the world, make information accessible, create tools for communities, for free while trying to keep the lights on at the same time. As he said thing being mostly free and yet needing to keep business going slowly drives you in weird directions of earning. May be there are people that just do not care, they are there with ruthless drive to make money for investors. And make tools for advertisers to sell more advertisements. Thus ordering their researches and engineers to make tools for influence. So that they can make product that better serves those who actually pay for for light being up. I agree with Jaron that there should not be people there working actively with aim to polarise humanity more trough this. That requires unreal combined levels of genius and psychopathy to manipulate organisations the size of Google and Facebook in to such directions.

    People are to a big part a product of their environment. It's easy to completely convince yourself that you're doing the right thing if you orientate yourself on the wrong people from a very young age. It's not their fault that they like flashy things and quick and easy rewards. It is just human instinct. They mostly have been brought up like this. And at a certain age you just don't have the courage to face their past wrongdoings so you just keep going. The only things that would interrupt the cycle would be therapy/psychedelics or some big trauma/dilemma.

    I really relate with your comment. I think there's something to be said here about accessibility. We naturally want the world/internet to be accessible for everyone, yet we know that some people aren't cut to positively influence the spaces they are a part of. They will automatically pollute the space with their unchecked toxicity (possibly stemming from unhealed trauma, which we all have). Staying in a toxic environment as positive-leaning people is a sacrifice we are all making in the hopes that the people contributing to its toxicity will eventually learn, heal, and adopt more positive, constructive traits. The responsability is on us to make the world and the internet a better place. We can all contribute to it, and until a certain ratio is reached we will suffer the tension and consequences of high levels of toxicity. Self-healing through self-awareness is the greatest work of our time for that reason.

    This video explains for me why I've been on the internet since young child, literally IBM, MSDOS, found IRC channels when I was 10, used every computer and operating system from the late 80s, but today, I absolutely despise social media. It doesn't matter that I've been on the internet since inception and can't be intimidated by software, I can't stand communicating via internet. I think there was one time in history I liked communicating online and it was on ICQ. ICQ was like the most bare bones social media you could possibly have, we didn't need to go beyond ICQ, but we just kept going and going and developing and just deleting privacy for seemingly no reason. The red herring they present is so you can network easier, but really the loss of privacy isn't worth it, it never was.

    “Profiting above all costs” natured companies do not have any interest in making civil-serving policies... it doesn’t profit them We need to be entrepreneurs that profit out of serving people AND / OR people need to start voting with their dollar Darin Olien is one example of founding a company that helps the indigenous people, their land, the environment, AND the consumer,, all at the same time. It is shifting consciousness to shift business models

    Here is an important man with an important message with all the credentials boot. His inside knowledge gives his argument credibility. He's not a staunch opponent of the internet or even social media. Rather than destroying the system, he offers regulatory prescriptions. It's realistic and has at least a chance of being accomplished. He needs much more exposure. They should be showing these lectures at high schools (cliche comment, I know, but in this case, is there an audience in more need of this information?) There apparently used to be classes taught in American high schools called 'citizenship classes'. They'd teach you the importance of voting and the importance of making informed decisions, not just based on television advertising. Now schools need whole 'reality classes' or 'consciousness classes'. Generic behavior on social media has become noticeably more pervasive and more acute. Perfectly beautiful girls in their early 20s are mutilating themselves to look like any one of the Kardiashins who are literal freaks of nature...this has become the norm. Mirror selfies so absurd but so common. Important social and civil rights movements are carried on the back of the most shallow gestures and meaningless slogans so that they lack any coherence or force - Occupy Wall Street, the Arab Spring both cases in point. Thankfully, I know a few real individual teenagers who have an eclectic taste in music and an actual interest in real literature (not Harry Potter) and don't meet 'challenges' on Tiktok. They give me hope.

    Regulation won’t do anything, just like the classes of yore didn’t create informed voters. The reality for better or for worse is that we probably have the most informed voting class now than at any point in history. People don’t like that there is an unstable majority, and assume that’s it’s all the idiots. But it isn’t. You may not like modern literature or pop culture trends, but they existed during the ages when your preferred works were created too. We’re going to be fine…and much more so if government stays out of it. Does that mean accepting bad information is going to exist? Of course. Freedom is scary. And sometimes makes you take a step back to take two forwards. It’s not youth ruining social media anyway. It’s people in their sixties. I don’t know a single person who tweets or tik toks other than as a consumer.

    @@ayushro4 My question to you would be, what about that IS disrespectful, though? Jaron is 60 years old, and VERY overweight. It would not be any bit of a shock if he died SOON. I don't think that he will, and I sure hope that he doesn't. I do wish that he would take better care of himself, though. The OP simply made a pretty obvious observation, man, and I imagine most of us made a similar one, or had a very similar thought. As harsh as that may seem to you, it's pretty obvious. Not that he may die soon, but like I said, his weight is a BIG (no pun intended) problem! It's also, generally, not a good sign if you have that much trouble with breathing just from talking. I could understand if he were doing something physical, but he's not. Ive known several people that weren't long for this world once they started having issues with their breathing. That's just life man, we all die.
