I'm hardcore about this. And maybe that's not healthy.

But... it reminded me of how mad I was about Upcounsel's content mill and your involvement just as an investor. I was so mad that I blocked you on Twitter because seeing your name was reminding me how mad I was.

AI and Upcounsel both are committing the same dual crime: 1) stealing content to 2) make the Internet worse.

On #1. We shouldn't fail to pay creators just to create an opportunity for cheap competition.

On #2. The content that is being stolen is the higher quality content. If we don't pay and then crowd it out with lower quality content, then we've done the Internet a huge disservice.
