    Tech reviewer Brad discusses the mass migration of artists from Instagram to the new social network Cara. With over half a million new users in just a few days, Cara offers artists protection for their work from being used in AI models and community-vouched portfolio accounts that filter out AI art. Instagram, on the other hand, has been losing favor due to decreased algorithm traction, drops in followers and engagement, and a focus on viral content. The final straw came when Instagram started allowing users to opt out of their AI training models, leaving artists feeling disregarded. Cara, self-funded by its creator Jinga Zang, provides a refreshing alternative to Instagram, with potential to operate as a normal business without investor pressure.

Despite the challenges Cara faces as a new social network, the speaker expresses support for the platform and encourages viewers to check it out.

    Tinfoil hat delusions of grandeur in a nutshell

    I expect the same people would be extremely vocal if there was a terrorist attack that could've been stopped but wasn't
