For the folks suggesting having your output ripped off has no real effect on the desire to share it, have a scroll through your social media site of choice while logged out. You ever do that, and see the batshit insane stream-of-Internet-conciousness fluff some site "wants" you to spend your evening on? That's humans synthesizing what they hope will be The Most Popular Thing, assisted by an ad revenue system that reinforces the behavior. Humans will still create, we seem to be wired for it. Just there's no reason to put it online if the only thing to read/view it is some LLM that will barf it back out in a higher ranking form. It's like posting stuff on social media vs. your own site, why bother? It'll be lost in the noise.
