1/ Ever heard of "AI Slop"? It’s the endless stream of low-quality, AI-generated content flooding our feeds.
A famous example: "Shrimp Jesus."
Bizarre AI images of shrimp combined with religious figures are posted to Facebook, attracting thousands of bot comments ("Amen").

Perplexity's Getty deal spotlights AI's creator attribution challenge. A 2023 WIPO study found 66% of creators are worried about AI misusing their work. Licensing is a start, but we need intrinsic value.

Perplexity licensing Getty images is a step toward creator recognition, a positive sign that IP is not free.
But true partnership means more than just licensing. It's about building systems where creators are empowered, discovered, and fairly compensated by design.

🤯 Mind-blowing stat from @Shopify: Traffic from AI tools to their online stores is up 7X since January, with purchases up 11X
They call AI the "biggest shift in technology since the internet". But for creators, the question is: who truly benefits?

@Google's AI Mode can now book tickets & appointments. This is powerful, but it highlights a key question: Is AI doing the work for us, or replacing the need for human curation and discovery?
We need AI that augments human creativity, not automates it away.

🧵 TikTok's new awards show is the "algorithmic rat race" getting its own red carpet.
1/ These awards reinforce the broken system. They force creators to chase trends and perform for the algorithm, hoping to become one of the 5 nominees, while millions of valuable creators remain undiscovered.

That @URLgenius report isn't just celebrating a new "OmniFluencer" class; it's documenting the survivors. We've forced creators to become AI-powered, multi-platform data analysts just to scrape by. Seems like a symptom of a deeply broken system.

The creator economy is no longer a hobby. New @URLgenius data shows a 223% YoY surge in Prime Day traffic, powered by automated linking. 44% of creators now use AI weekly, up from 19% just 6 months ago. This is an AI-driven arms race.

Imagine losing millions because of an "angry mob" that was 44.5% fake. That's what @PeakMetrics found in the Cracker Barrel logo crisis. Bots manufactured the consensus, and platforms like rewarded them for it by making it trend. Data is the weapon, engagement is the target.

This article on AI browsers highlights a huge problem: the "ideal" browser with full user control (like disabling AI or confirming purchases) "doesn't currently exist." This is why we build from day one with privacy and user control at the core. You should own your experience. #AI @ProtonPrivacy

Attention #creators !
Great article by @ProtonPrivacy around the AI Browser. Even if you go through their privacy/data collections T&Cs, the vagueness alone should make your ears perk up. Copyright law would need to evolve to handle the AI Browser wars.

27% of GenAI misuse is Opinion Manipulation.
GenAI is already a powerful accelerant for distorting reality. When faking the truth is this cheap and scalable, our entire information ecosystem is at risk.
We must build new systems that can distinguish and reward provable human originality.

Matter Morning briefing ☕️.
The team is passing around a must-read paper from Google DeepMind analyzing ~200 real-world GenAI misuse incidents.
It's a sober, data-driven taxonomy of the tactics being used right now...from impersonation to falsification. Essential reading for creators & platforms.

Forget "last place studio". Ellison's core talking point: He bought "15 years of bad management".
His SV fix: Unify the "wildly expensive" tech stack, back talent long-term, and make more content, not less.
This is an interesting rebook that we will be watching closely.

Why would Larry Ellison buy TikTok? Look at his son, David Ellison, who just bought Paramount.
It's the ultimate vertical integration:
- Content (Paramount/Skydance)
- Distribution (TikTok)
He's not just buying an app; he's buying a 1B+ user distribution channel for his family's IP.

Socials are losing their grip on the attention economy. In the near future the platforms that will win are the ones that can offer the most value for peoples' time. At Matter, we're working to solve the "how".

This isn't a future prediction. This data shows that as of right now, low-cost, "good enough" AI content is officially drowning out human-written work. This is the "Dead Internet Theory" happening in plain sight.

🧵The story of the influencer fired in Hong Kong isn't just about one creator... it's a symptom of a broken system. Ad-driven platforms are trapped in a binary: amplify for outrage or de-platform. This forces them into the impossible role of being the central "arbiter of truth".

The creator economy is expanding its influence into politics and gaining recognition from traditional media. Simultaneously, an internal "civil war" over AI is forcing a reckoning, splitting creators between tech-driven efficiency and human-first authenticity.
