> This may be missing some context, but it seems as though you're saying that you made something with AI and it led to traction. That's great! Seems off the point that blocking LLM service will lead to less exposure over time though.
Hah, I can see how you would have read it that way. Quite the opposite. I don't use AI tools for my writing. Hackaday and Adafruit have both featured my posts, and their posts were pretty clearly AI-generated.
That still sounds like a great deal. Less work for those post authors, and you benefitting from being cited in some way (maybe they used Perplexity or similar, and didn't even visit your site themselves).
@ryukoposting - i am the founder of hackaday, but do not run the site now, and i am also the managing director of adafruit and editor of the adafruit blog. the adafruit does not use generative text, etc. unless clearly indicated https://www.adafruit.com/editorialstandards ... appreciate a correction to your post, hard to combat misinformation with ai, but you can email and i can prove i am human if ya want... pt at adafruit dot com
