Having clankers churn out content to feed the clankers is a futile game to play. It’s an arms-race to the bottom of a cesspit.
Somewhere out there are real humans wanting to read real content, but being deafened by the roar of shit that is destroying the internet as a place to learn and interact with other humans.
So fuck that, I’m out. (Technically, I was never in; writing posts with AI is gross).
I’m sticking to publishing my small-batch, artisanal, hand-crafted writing. And if folk manage to find it and enjoy reading it, that’s wonderful. And if it gets drowned out in an ocean of slop and never gets found, then I guess I’m just writing for myself. Which is why I started out writing anyway :)
Oh, and if you haven’t seen WarGames (1983), go watch it 😎
