AI-Generated Images Discourage Me from Reading Your Blog

I have a growing hatred for AI-generated images in blogs. It makes me wonder if the text in the blog posts is AI-generated to some extent. It’s always disappointing seeing these images in blogs run by individuals. I expect this from corporate blogs but not indie blogs.

I’d rather see a shitty Microsoft Paint drawing as opposed to some AI image.

I know there are plenty of things you can roast my blog for but at least you know for a fact you’re getting the thoughts of a real human being and not some LLM.

If you run a personal blog, please avoid AI-generated images.
