Topics
Taylor Lorenz: 我是Taylor Lorenz，欢迎收听Power User。2024年互联网发展迅速，我们将回顾这一年中最重要的病毒式事件，包括Zuckerberg和Musk的笼斗传闻、Zuckerberg形象的转变、以及AI生成的虚假信息对互联网的影响。此外，长视频内容的兴起，例如Kai Cenat的30天直播，也值得关注。MrBeast的负面新闻和TikTok的禁令也对2024年的互联网格局产生了深远的影响。最后，我们还将讨论一些新兴的网红，例如Costco Guys和Hawk Tuah Girl，以及年度词汇“Brain Rot”。 Sam Sanders: 我同意Taylor的观点，2024年是互联网发展变化巨大的一年。首先，互联网正在从文本转向视频，这导致了Twitter等文本平台的衰落，以及TikTok等视频平台的崛起。然而，TikTok的禁令也给YouTube等平台带来了新的机遇。其次，AI技术的快速发展带来了大量AI生成的虚假信息，对互联网的真实性和可信度造成了冲击。同时，长视频内容的兴起也反映了人们对更深入、更细致内容的需求。此外，MrBeast事件也警示了新媒体行业中劳动保护的重要性。最后，Costco Guys和Hawk Tuah Girl等网红现象也反映了互联网文化的多样性和复杂性。
