AI is loved by mediocre talentless people who don't value expertise, don't value skills, lazy as fuck people who wants creativity without the effort.

If this is the "creativity" that they are producing for me, I want none of it. So I continue to block all and any LLM generated things, be it music, video, articles, social media posts, email, etc and I continue to block people who give me LLM generated garbage without thought, because they simply don't value my time (other than my day job ofc, because I still need to put food on the table).

I want an economy where AI economy is totally separate from non AI economy and we don't interact with each other. At least I make an attempt to isolate that myself.

There's also another side of it: there's a legitimate case for places where we don't need high quality creativity.

We have a world of clip art and stock photos. A lot of this is not best effort-- people grab what's in the catalog, and the catalog is itself often either mediocre or overused to the point where it's a blatant signal of low-effort. If you want a smiling washing machine to put on a flyer for the building's laundry room, or a generic photo of St. Basil's for an article about Russia, nobody really complains about that.

AI could fill a similar niche. We know it's crap, but it's good enough crap. Except it's absurdly expensive crap when the externalities are actually priced in.

The key difference now: It is really really easy and fast to generate this crap. It overwhelms society, and any industry it touches. It breaks everything.
