The case for gatekeeping, or: why medieval guilds had it figured out

What on earth? We could just let the processes play catch up instead of bringing medival (like literally) ideas back to life. Guilds are the worst fucking thing. We still have those in Germany and I despise it so much. Fucking IHK and others where I have to be a member, I can't even decide for myself. Parasites they are.

I mean, yeah, that will be the way everything will move towards to because LLMs will be a pain in the ass for open communities. We will see a shift from open communities towards closed, trust-based communities that are invite-only and where users have to vouch for the people they invite.
