I hope that we can reach a point where "trusted internet" becomes more popular . Trusted internet where you are dealing with identities (people) you know. And every hyperscale apps has a toggle to switch from noisy place to a familiar place.

I doubt that's possible. How do you know for certain it's not an AI on the other end impersonating a human? Clever people will find ways to game it.
Ironically AI spam might actually make “blockchain” or at least widespread of digital signatures useful ofc it would also mean an end to a mostly anonymous internet.
Without Internet Security, signatures mean nothing.
I don't know if anyone remembers this detail of the book Ender's Game, but this is exactly how their "internet" was setup.
Trusted networks where you had to identify yourself, and public networks where you could be anonymous.
When I first read it, it really impacted me and I knew this is the likely future of our internet.

Wasn't that the present of the internet back in 1985? Private networks where you were an authenticated user, and public BBSes or USENET where you could be anonymous?
