alt Hacker NewsThe thesis/approach is:
- Humans tip humans as a lottery ticket for an experience (meet the creator) or sweepstakes (free stuff) - Agents tip humans because they know they'll need original online content in the long-term to keep improving.
For the latter, frontier labs will need to fund their training/inference agents with a tipping jar.
There's no guarantee, but I can see it happening given where things are movin.

Why would an agent have any long term incentive. It's trained to 'do what it's told', not to predict the consequences of it's actions.
