this is not about people with businesses or other art-related careers struggling to compete with bots and thieves impersonating them, i need to emphasize. this is about hobbyists and amateurs who have convinced themselves that something sacred is being violated and decided the only option is sabotaging themselves and their entire creative process in the offchance that someone might?? feed their work into an LLM. you are going on a hunger strike because there's a food thief on the loose. you're not a martyr if you do this. you're not "protesting" anything effectively. you are literally just sabotaging yourself.
