Why should they care about new content? Game over already. Just keep regurgitating the same slop to the masses. Even before ai it was like this. How many 2 minute pop songs use the same chord structure? Just keep selling the same thing slightly permutated (or not) from the last. That's capitalism, baby. This isn't a science.
- nicbou 7mo agoA lot of people were running original websites, reviewing stuff, blazing new trails, making new art. It's just harder when you cut all traffic to them, devalue their work and fill the air with AI noise.
- asdff 7mo agoVery few of them actually made money though, compared to people who tried to just take an existing idea they could already order from china in bulk and market the living hell out of it. These companies obviously don't care about art and stuff like that, they really just care about the money.
- nicbou 7mo agoDoes that make it okay? Some websites weren't free enough and their owners not passionate enough, so wholesale destruction of that ecosystem is acceptable? We'll have the internet we deserve
- wolvesechoes 7mo agoYeah, it is somewhat funny to read the kind of people that for years looked down on humanities suddenly coming-up with ideas that were described decades or even centuries ago. Marx, Nietsche, Debord, Foucault, Baudrillard, Adorno - they already saw writing on the wall, or at least fragments of it.
