At least the blog author is self-aware about making accessibility worse? I just found it funny how reactionary and backfire-y this was.
(In politics, a reactionary is a person who favors a return to a previous state of society which they believe possessed positive characteristics absent from contemporary society.)
I sympathize with the reactionary. Obviously there's no putting the genie back in the bottle, but it would be nice to live in that world where writing stuff helped human readers more than it helped billion-dollar corporations.
You do still help human readers. I've been absolutely having the joy of my life for example reading the advent of compiler optimization posts that surface here everyday.
Granted there is a lot of AI slop here also now but I'm still glad humans write so that I can read and we can discuss here!
