A lot of people ask What can AI do? A better question is What are PEOPLE going to do with AI?

And the answer is people are gonna do a lot more, faster, and with less resources. And sure this is great. There's also a negative potential to how AI can multiply small acts of short-sighted greed.

Most ventures require resources– people, equipment, time, money. Getting resources requires a reputation, some positive track record. These requirements prevented a lot of decent people from getting a chance. They also barred scammers and opportunists. As much as gatekeepers are the enemies of progress, they do a decent job filtering out nutjobs and con artists.

Generative AI gives everyone a shot. But everyone means everyone. Including people with bad ideas. Just as online scams were a major subplot of the internet, scaling bad ideas will be major subplot of the generative AI boom.

I am writing a [longer explanation of this idea](https://intelligentjello.substack.com/p/ai-scams-and-shams-scaling-the-wrong). But here are a few patterns I’ve noticed.

>AI can make stuff really easily >AI can act instantly

Therefore: >AI makes high-effort, low-return work worthwhile >AI lowers the value of images and muddies their signal People associate ‘polished images’ with ‘legitimacy’ and this is a vulnerability.

Some of these scams/shams will be: AI authorship - Writing books really fast, trying to hijack SEO juice, and then selling AI false marketing - It will be easier than ever to whip up polished marketing materials. We'll see a lot more fyre festivals.
