The point where I truly feel that AI is a game changer is that these kinds of posts keep appearing. Tautological outcries keep going on both sides, pro and con, endlessly repeating circular logic. There's no real substance or evidence, and rather than discussing how things were actually applied, it's just an echo chamber for whatever group you belong to.

In that sense, my homepage (https://www.makonea.com/en-US) doesn't even make it to the HN front page—it's mostly in SHOWDEAD. Does that mean it has less value than this post? I'm feeling a sense of doubt about myself.

this post is no good. It's a continual rehash of what's going on in the industry. That's how all social media is, it's entirely time sensitive, keep saying the the same things and be the one to say it so the discussion happens on your "content".

OP is playing the game. The post literally says "from LinkedIn" so if you look, he has 500+ connections and 1400 followers. That's not nothing. Good for him, all advice points to this new attention economy we live in.

I'm a bit aged out of all this. And I rode the 2010s wave so I can't give any advice in good conscience. I can only say that I see you and there's a whole world of silent majorities out there with no follow count and no broetry with our name on it. (search for that word in this thread, just learned it, it's great!)
