I think we're dopamine junkies for everything. That's how we govern our lives most of the time, right? I mean, I totally get the analogy, but is it all the dopamine addiction if you do sports every day? Whatever thing you do that makes you feel good, I think most of the things we do is to try and make ourselves feel good in some way.

I do think we need some degree of identity verification for some of the big spaces that we use. I think we need to know somewhat where content comes from. Who created it? When was it created? How was it created? So I think we need identity verification to some extent. But I also think we need to take that all the way down to kind of like the content level.

So if you imagine that you fingerprinted, you know Shazam, the app on your phone. Of course. Imagine you had a Shazam, but for every single piece of content on the internet, it could tell you, hey, this picture was originally uploaded five years ago. It was uploaded the first time by Harry. Maybe in the future, it'll say this was partly made with Synthesia.

You're watching a dubbed version, so this is AI for translation. Whatever kind of signals we can give around content, if you had that and identity verification and community nodes, every time you scroll past a piece of content, you would see if it's verified or not verified. Right. Today, everything, well, it's changed a bit now, right?

But it used to be that only celebrities had verified accounts. Why was that? Well, that's because a lot of people tried to make an account pretending to be some celebrity. And so as a consumer, when you see that trusted, verified sign, that tells you that that's actually the celebrity posting that content, right?

I think we should try and flip that around so that everyone and all content is kind of verified. If we have the provenance trail of it, we know kind of where it came from, maybe how it was created and some other kind of things around it. And that'll give you like a green check mark on that content. and it should stick out like a sore thumb is something that's not verified.

So if there isn't a fingerprint for the content, if we don't know where it's from, that should be the thing that sticks out, not the kind of verified sign on a celebrity's page. Does that make sense?
