🔗 The human.json Protocol via Beto Dealmeida #Development #Webdev #Ai #Tech

human.json is a lightweight protocol for humans to assert authorship of their site content and vouch for the humanity of others. It uses URL ownership as identity, and trust propagates through a crawlable web of vouches between sites.

@cory I love this!
@zachleat Me too! I added it to my site and dropped everyone from my blogroll into the vouches section.
XFN - XHTML Friends Network

@jgarber @zachleat YES, bring it back

@cory @zachleat I can’t recall important things, but I can remember posting a question about XFN 20 years ago on the microformats mailing list.

[uf-discuss] rel="muse" implies romantic relationship?

@jgarber @zachleat There are so many cool things like this that I totally missed but I’m thrilled that ideas like the are catching on again

@cory @zachleat This humans.json thing seems more like “What if FOAF, but it’s JSON” to me (in a neutral way, to be certain).

My tendency will always be in the vicinity of “mark up your blog roll or link blog with `rel` values and microformats and you’re golden.

@jgarber @zachleat I should do a better job with microformats. humans.json was easy enough to add — I added another toggle to my authors resource and bootstrapped it from my blogroll toggle with a migration.
@cory I should totally integrate this with https://aidirtylist.info
The AI Dirty List

Ensuring those who choose to bathe in AI slop will never be washed clean.

The AI Dirty List
@gryphonmyers @cory I would be careful. This still allows for AI use at all; it just excludes generation.
@arthfach @cory ah there's a Doctorow clause I see
@gryphonmyers @cory Yeah. A lot of "done by humans" stuff is sneaking in clauses allowing for AI in various scenarios. It's like the "Assembled in..." manufacturing clauses - only the end product matters to them, not how you got there.
@cory It would be nice if this could somehow be integrated into https://humanstxt.org/.
