People wouldn't just write encyclopedia articles or software for free. Explicit economic incentives are needed for all creative pursuits.

- dgellow 4y agoI’m not sure if your ton is supposed to be ironic or not. I am talking about the shift from the current system (clearly ad based), towards a world where that’s not sustainable anymore. I did not say all creative output require economic incentives, that’s not something I believe to be true. I myself currently work more or less full time on my own creative projects because I like it, without consideration for economic values.
- stocknoob 4y agoApologies, the tone was snarky (I’ve seen many instances where people assume human output will cease in the face of AI generated content). Yes, as SEO content becomes less valuable, those remaining will be creating for passion, like in the early days of the internet. Purely profit-driven ventures will move on.
