People: - StJohn Piano - Nicholas Piano Items: - Trust can only be based on honest signals - Signals: -- Physical meetings --- Local city --- Remote city (so plane flights, Dubai) -- Spending money (pay to register, pay subscription) -- Spending time (e.g. lots of video calls) -- Public statement of affiliation e.g. badge, costume -- Certificate granted by an authority (e.g. HTTPS tree, FCA registration) - Problem: In the online environment, it was already difficult to distinguish between fake and honest signals. Now, post-AI, really difficult. Conclusion: - Tela Network can provide credible online social proof through posts of meeting notes, publicly validated by the participants. - Such proof must be long-lived, clear, and accessible. - This could provide a public basis for trust, even in the new environment of AI noise.
