A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don't know what to think about this, because on one hand I don't like not beeing asked permission, but on the other hand I'm glad that my opinions will be somewhat reflected in chatgpt
I’m a bit annoyed by someone else profitting off my words, though. I freely gave them to the world I guess, and never objected to search engines using them, but my words were not “monetized”, even if they were later used to sell advertising. But it just doesn’t seem right for Reddit and others to be cashing in
