As a creator, I dislike it too. I'd love it if the platforms would just show you my content without the pictures. But the pictures are what make people click, so I'm stuck.
It's the same reason online recipes have life stories. Because Google rewards longer pages. So now you have to do that just to get seen, even if you don't want to.
- jebarker 2y ago> But the pictures are what make people click I wonder if that's a conscious or sub-conscious decision on the clickers part? It's hard to imagine anyone is consciously motivated to click on an article because of an AI generated picture.
- emaro 2y agoThe life story recipes are the worst. Personally, I like a shitty 1min hand-drawn stick figure a thousand times more than a generated image. But I'm probably a minority here. You're right, it's not what Google and SEO incentivizes.
