With AI exponentially accelerating effects of Dead Internet, I think any social or content-sharing platforms will require some form of Digital ID that can't be easily created/mass-generated (e.g. maybe tie bank account to it?).

That would put real consequences on users misusing platforms. Even a small fee for misbehavior would likely curtail vast swathes of bad actors. It would also make companies be less trigger-happy with their bots if such are allowed to operate in that ID framework (i.e. an identifiable bot being punished would be a fee subtracted from the company that uses it).

I pretty much expect that kind of system in the future, otherwise we will just return back to private networks and private communities.

Companies bread much faster than humans can. So in that new internet where we ID every participant we should not equate company and human. And fines are not the solution as some actors can buy their way out with unlimited funds (compared to regular human)
