I completely agree. I’ve been sharing some art I’m doing for inktober, but only because it’s doodles for practice, and could only make ai art worse for it’s inclusion.
But my writing (on my personal website) or my serious art works or my persona open source code projects? Yeah, I have lost all enthusiasm to share them online. If people want to see my work, I’ll send it to them directly.
I think the era of free and open sharing on the Internet is dead, which does sadden me. I think we’re ultimately moving to a new dark age, the Dark Net Age, where all communication and sharing will go into various private chats and sites, where people can be vetted and held accountable.
Well people that care, which will end up being like the early internet: smart kids, embattled minorities, and crotchety, paranoid old folks. All the people too busy or ignorant to care are already deep into the algorithmic treadmills of X and TikTok and I don’t think they’re ever coming out.
