July State of the Internet with Chelsea Riffe: Yesteryear Debrief, Influencer Hate (or Misogyny?), Meta AI Glasses, and Another AI Debacle

Love You To The Core
Dela

Chelsea and I were frothing to record this State of the Internet July breakdown, because this was a TRUE "WTF is going on" month!

Today's report includes:

  • Our takes on Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke — what was the book REALLY about? Tradwife influencers? Motherhood? Performing womanhood? We get into it and what it means in a broader cultural context.
  • Is "influencer" an insult? We respond to this Reel by Levi Coralynn who addresses the topic, and dive into the overlap between influencers, capitalism and misogyny
    Meta Glasses — Chelsea shares her theory about why these will never take off in the way Zuck deludes, Xanthe shares her take on how they've positioned these culturally, and we have to wonder... who (and what?) are these really for?
  • Plus loads of other AI headlines, including Substack's partnership with Pangram to detect AI writing, the backlash against Meta's gen AI tool, and how did we get to the point of "Claudefishing", where you can have Claude create videos of you from a single image

BIG ep today! We discuss everything through the lens of online leadership, digital behavior, and modern philosophy.

You’ll leave with clear takeaways to move forward with, as well as a deeper understanding of how these topics are already impacting the conversations you’re leading, online and off.

The internet is chaos — we'll help you make sense of it from our corner of it all.
