Funny, this outcome was long overdue and predictable. GIGO- Garbage in, garbage out.

It’s almost similar to the way LLMs churn out similar code suggestions. Or how most websites look alike thanks to Tailwind CSS.

The biggest challenge with AI in my view isn’t the loss of jobs, it’s the death of creativity:

  • Which creator wants to be the cheap raw material for an eternal machine that keeps taking, taking and never giving?
