I propose the following thesis: thanks to AI, generated content in all news sources will be tailored individually to each individual based on their knowledge, vocabulary, and education level. Some might say that this has been the case for a long time, so what’s so shocking about this? Unfortunately, this is a new possibility. What I’m writing about concerns complete content customization. Based on a given person’s digital profile, the form of communication and content of the information will be selected. Let me give you an example: I go to the CNN website and open the news panel. Then I take a screenshot and show it to my partner, who is also watching CNN news on her iPhone. We both see completely different forms and content regarding the same event—for example, the Gulf War. This is how it can work. This doesn’t just apply to news. But to any information. Below, more scientifically, for those who think differently. Information personalization is entering a phase of semantic differentiation, as the traditional model, based on algorithmic topic selection (what we see), is replaced by a model of dynamic form synthesis (how we see it). AI becomes a cognitive interface that maps objective events onto the subjective conceptual frameworks of recipients. This new manipulation technique treats information as a fluid, changing state, where content loses its status as a static data record. The event becomes a “raw data vector” that passes through the filter of a digital profile. The system performs translation on three levels: Lexical: Selection of vocabulary appropriate to the user’s educational level (from simplifications to specialized jargon). Structural: Hierarchization of threads according to the user’s cognitive priorities. Metaphorical: Using familiar mental models to explain new phenomena. What are the consequences? The breakdown of common denominators—because no one reads or hears the same information, arguing about its interpretation. Semantic personalization removes this foundation. In theory, this is a plus, as the recipient understands the topic at a glance. This eliminates the barrier to entry into difficult topics (e.g., quantum mechanics or fiscal policy) by adapting the narrative to the individual’s “zone of proximal development.” But do we realize the risks? It’s like using an atomic bomb, only in the context of atomization of reality. Each individual operates on a different version of “truth” (in terms of formulations and emphasis), and social consensus becomes impossible to achieve due to the lack of a common language of description. Semantic personalization is the ultimate tool for optimizing the mind, which simultaneously threatens to erode objective reality. Information ceases to be a window onto the world and becomes a mirror reflecting the competencies and prejudices of the observer (or interpreter?). submitted by /u/TeachingNo4435
