“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Haha, oh sorry, I was on mute. I was saying I worry I’ve permanently worn down all the charming edges of myself that others didn’t like and I’ve become dull like a riverstone—and perhaps the only way to make new edges is to fragment into smaller and smaller pieces until nothing is left.

this happened because ads stopped working, then their work to compromise search results by biasing towards AdWords stopped working, then they realized being able to blame an LLM for both inaccurate placement and inaccurate information was better for ad unit sales than Having Search Work
