On a more human level, I think it's bleak that someone who makes a blog just to share stuff for fun is going to have most of his traffic be scrapers that distill, distort, and reheat whatever he's writing before serving it to potential readers.
If someone writes valuable stuff on a blog almost nobody finds, that's a tragedy.
If LLM's can process the information and provide it to people in conversations where it will be most helpful, where they never would have found it otherwise, then that's amazing!
If all you're trying to do is help people with the information you've discovered, why do you care if it's delivered via your own site or via LLM? You just want it out there helping people.
This is why I care if my ideas are presented to others by an LLM (that maybe cites me in some % of cases) or directly to a human. There is already a difference between a human visiting my space (acknowledging it as such) to read and learn information and being a footnote reference that may or may not be read or opened, without an immediate understanding of which information comes from me.
Publishing on a personal blog is not the path.
LLM's aren't taking away from your "prestige" or recognition. Any more than a podcaster referencing an idea of yours without mentioning you is. Or anyone else in casual conversation.
And yes, a podcaster talking about someone's idea without referencing it is an unethical behavior.
What a bleak view of the world.
Even if someone were to do it out of sheer passion without a care for financial gains, I'm sure they'd still appreciate basic validation and recognition. That's like the cheapest form of payment you could give for someone's work.
I don't understand why "actually, you're egotistical if you dare to desire recognition for stuff you put love and effort to" is such a common argument in those discussions. People are treated like machines that should swallow their pride and sense of self for the greater good, while on the other end, there is a (not saying YOU in particular did it) push to humanize LLMs.
