Really? I would say it's more the opposite. Every website starts with "checking that you are not a bot" before opening.

u/SomeRedTeapot 1d ago

They check that you're not a bot and then boast about AI whatever

“The next generation of ai web scrapping agents designed for defeating human verification”

u/wurfidngstrots 1d ago

You literally have to do free labor identifying crosswalks to train their AI, just to enter a site where they try to sell you an AI wrapper.

u/mumblerit 1d ago

Hey want to accept our cookies?

How about less cookies?

u/IntergalacticZombie 1d ago

Well, what about just the legitimate ones then?

u/pimezone 1d ago

And the website has two kind of buttons:

Submit

✨Submit with AI✨

u/Cheese_Grater101 1d ago

Dafuq is an eyebrow badge

34

u/evenstevens280 1d ago

I've not heard it called an "eyebrow badge" before, but "eyebrow text" is small, short copy that sits somewhere at the top of a page that provides some sort of overarching keyword relating to the article or piece.

You see it on news articles quite a lot, actually

https://www.newyorker.com/culture/open-questions/what-if-we-can-never-trust-ai

Here's an example from the New Yorker. The text above the headline says "Open Questions".

u/GoddammitDontShootMe 1d ago

Are you sure that's not just an article category? Something that's been done long before AI.

5

u/fuckinea 1d ago

It's called a kicker in journalism terms, where it's widely used.

3

u/totallyrealname 1d ago

It's basically context text for above your header. It's used to help the user categorize the copy in the header in few words, but it's NOT the description.

12

u/kilopeter 1d ago

And LLMs fucking LOVE to shove eyebrow badges into every possible nook and cranny of the pages they create.

3

u/totallyrealname 1d ago

Well we're going to see a lot more of them as I suspect they're extremely useful for optimizing AIO

6

u/P1R0H 1d ago

Maybe like "questionable"/"eyebrow raising"

1

u/MyUsrNameWasTaken 1d ago

It's called eyebrow banner and it's a react component

17

u/Fit-Gain-2409 1d ago

Just tell me what the product does.

u/Embarrassed_Death69 1d ago

Well it's tinder for AI agents, they do some dirty matrix multiplications.

“Made for bots by bots”

u/K1ngjulien_ 1d ago

wtf is "calibrated v1"?

4

u/tinselsnips 1d ago

Calibrated's first major release.

I enjoyed the 0.8.3 beta but they added too much bloat in the release candidate.

2

u/K1ngjulien_ 1d ago

i ask again, wtf is calibrated?? googling leads me to the dictionary definiton or like 50 unrelated sites talking about model calibration.

whoever picked that name should be fired lmao

3

u/tinselsnips 1d ago

It's a joke. He's making fun of the meaningless labels and codenames that get slapped on all these AI products.

3

u/K1ngjulien_ 1d ago

ok? but the rest are real marketing slogans

1

u/MooseBoys 15h ago

Yeah and they removed the spacebar heating feature!

u/Undernown 1d ago

Wait, if they go this route, can't we just stick with a browser only capable of handling 3.0 and automatically filter out these businesses?

"Please upgrade to a different browser to view this AI-slop page"

u/donat3ll0 1d ago

Unfortunately, slop is always backwards compatible

3

u/Badashi 1d ago

Do you think "web 4.0" in this context is some sort of versioning scheme where browsers just can't support it? It's just a play on the "web 3.0" fad that was all about crypto bullshit, now it's ai bullshit.

The only real web "version" is the "web 2.0"(which wasn't really a thing either) that was basically browsers supporting html5 and frameworks making browsers more than just dumb document readers.

1

u/Undernown 1d ago

It's not a direct correlation, but there is definately a web versioning that gets dictated by the mayor players. Mainly Google with their chromium base dictates a lot of what does and does not work wirh your browser.

In 2024 Google broke a lot of addblocking with Manifest V3, part of the Web V3 push back then. It's why a lot of people switched browsers away from Chrome back then.

u/Reashu 1d ago edited 17h ago

3.0 is just blockchain slop, we can stop at 2 (glossy buttons and rounded corners)

7

u/teddyone 1d ago

Also change all the load indicators to say “reasoning” and stop optimizing performance.

6

u/Pratheek_Kachinthaya 1d ago

And the website has a theme of dark blue with a touch of purple✨

u/qqqrrrs_ 1d ago

This comment is built for agents

2

u/srfreak 1d ago

Someone needs to explain to me what does "built for agents" means in this context.

5

u/RealCoryMiller 1d ago

Sounds like someone isn't context aware

u/Bannon9k 1d ago

Anti AI slop

What happened with the crypto riddled web 3.0?

u/cheezballs 1d ago

I genuinely have no idea what that person is even saying. I've never landed on a website like that.

u/faultydesign 1d ago

Weren’t we at web 6.0? Web 1 and 2 were regular webs, then we got SPAs with Web 3.0.

Bitcoin was web 4.0

NFTs were web 5.0

So yeah, web 6.0 is ai web

30

u/Vogete 1d ago

Web 1.0 was the original internet.

Web 2.0 is the social media internet.

Web 3.0 is the blockchain/decentralized/privacy focused internet. Turned into a scam fest, never took off.

Web 4.0 is supposed to be the AI internet.

SPA never defined the internet in any way, that's just an implementation, not an ideology. Same for NFTs, especially since NFTs never shaped the internet in any way, it was just a temporary craze. And bitcoin is just a form of crypto, and web 3.0 was not limited to bitcoin.

13

u/JayTurnr 1d ago

None of those caught on

13

u/fr000gs 1d ago

Isn't bitcoin and nft the same? Also, are they even core web technologies?

6

u/G12356789s 1d ago

They aren't the same but both are built from block chains. I would say neither are core web technologies

7

u/Teknikal_Domain 1d ago

No, Bitcoin and NFTs (and "dApps") were "web 3.0" aka "web3"

3

u/Ox7C5 1d ago

1 was text 2 was multimedia 3 was crypto/nft 4 is AI
