I agree with this, but I don’t think we’ll ever be able to have that again. AI slop is drowning out all the genuine content regardless of monetization.
What’s the incentive to put hours of effort into something if nobody will ever see it because every hour another 1000 AI versions were generated and they’re all “close enough” to fool someone not paying attention?
