The blood-brain barrier is one of the human body’s most important ‘features’.
A similar barrier existed in the tech world.
But now, with the rise of agentic AI, platforms have been looking to take things a step further.
For example, Google has changed its privacy policy so it could read Google documents that its users created using its platform. Meta went after all your social posts. Everything was fair game. Everything was eaten.
The next to be devoured isn’t content—it’s e-commerce.
Praveen Gopal Krishnan elucidates in this episode of The Nutgraf. Tune in.
