So far the whole business model of Silicon Valley since social media has been to monetize other peoples' content given out for free. The whole empire is built on this.

I wonder if this is going to come to an end through a combination of social media fatigue, social media fragmentation, and open source LLMs just giving it all back to us for free. LLMs are analogous to a "JPEG for ideas" so they're just lossy compression blobs of human thought expressed through language.
