Thank you very much, I just don’t understand all this very well, so your answer was extremely useful for me. By the way, is it better to bake bread yourself or buy it in a store? It’s just that store-bought bread is either so to speak airy, or some kind of empty, like sand, or something in between.

It sounds cool, of course, but I’m afraid in reality it will all end with having to survive in small communities in nature to avoid concentration camps. And protesters, journalists and others will simply be crushed with the help of AI.

Yes, I am gradually learning, although at first it was awkward, especially with meat, but it was worth it.

Well, let’s say for the rich it will be a utopia, but for everyone else…

Yeah, the choice is, of course, very limited.

No dude I think you should still try lol.

Still, it’s better with a blanket, it’s like saying the brain feels protected. Of course, I slept without a blanket, but for that you have to be incredibly tired, so much so that you won’t care where and how you sleep, even in a barn, as long as it is quiet and nothing disturbs.

There are examples of people who have become so iconic in their own niche that after decades they have five to ten thousand dollars a month on Patreon.

But with donations it’s very difficult, you need to create something damn unique, with your own unique voice and even humor. But yes it is possible, although because of AI this opportunity is slowly closing.

How can a non-native English speaker make things interesting and beautiful for native speakers? Maybe you should try writing for the French in their native language? :3

Yes, I think everyone who wants to do art in our time simply has to know how business works, otherwise, alas, most likely nothing will come of it.

And you are also right about creating a niche, I forgot that proverb, if you want to shine among the bright stars, to be noticed, you will have to at least change your color to a unique.

And let’s give a bonus excerpt: an experienced mercenary was walking through an overgrown forest, he had not been able to find an exit to any path for several days, although he was warned not to go deep into the forest on Monday, but he didn’t care because he heard that the same dryad milker had finally woken up and he, as a brave warrior, could not miss such a rare opportunity…

Well, there’s nothing particularly surprising about that, I’ve already learned the hard way what a hell it is, if anything, I write light novels because I’ve received information that regular books or just novels are a very bad idea and few people can make money from them, and with light novels the chances are higher, but they’re still shitty, and because of AI people have become suspicious now, so you have to be damn unique and talented to get noticed by even a few people.

In short, it looks like I’ll have to find my niche instead of chasing money and popularity.

As they say, someone has to create art, otherwise we might drown in this corporate generative garbage in the future.

Honestly, I wanted to make money from art so that I would have more free time to make my works as bright and high-quality as possible. Otherwise, when you come home from work, you are already such a vegetable that even writing a small bad piece of text is already a miracle.

But the idea of ​​making art free sounds strange to me, or can you make it free and then hope for donations?

Yes, I rarely listen to songs online anymore because it is extremely inconvenient for me, besides, there is a clever way to transfer any track offline even if there is no download option, although I am not sure that this method works everywhere, in some places there is protection against this, but still, the method, although inconvenient, works, and you don’t have to pay anyone a cent.

Yes, until this alternative is sold to major players. Although I’m not exactly sure…

Oh, how damn right you are, I just remember some cult writers of the past who lived no better than ordinary workers, if not poorly on the brink of survival.

Only in the future, thanks to these AIs, even earning a penny from writing will be a miracle even for the talented and lucky.

These AIs are more likely to simply steal human labor than create something of their own, although they are not people, so there is nothing surprising about it.

And I have another problem: my writing style is, so to speak, bloodthirsty, and the characters’ stories are cruel, I’m afraid that I will be constantly threatened with blocking if I publish this, but I don’t care, I will continue, I can’t not write.

But reality can be merciless, as if a flood had swamped an entire city along with its inhabitants, sparing neither children nor anyone else.

That’s why I’m afraid that capitalism can work miracles, even taking away people’s souls.

But thank you for your comforting answer.

Oh, it’s the harsh truth, there’s nothing to say about it. There used to be a tiny chance, on a miracle level, and now there’s not even that.

Either you work for free, like a [BAD WORD], or you’ll be thrown out in the trash like a mongrel.

Because of AI, I will probably never be able to make a decent living from this, or at all. Before AI, there was still some chance, but now it is simply destroyed, and it does not matter if I spend 10 years or less, my creativity will not be needed by anyone if AI does it faster, cheaper and also better.

But your thoughts are quite relevant for the current time.

Well, how to say in the future no amount of effort will be enough. Only having a cult status and a niche will help, otherwise you will have to go to a regular job or even die of hunger if you have serious health problems.

The final stage of capitalism seems to scream: make as much money as possible at any cost, no matter who suffers in the process.
