I follow a fair number of people who would, back in the day, have been classic bloggers, but are now doing Substack, and rarely even mention AI. Here's one I like enough that I actually pay for it:

We're drowning in AI slop and slop about AI, someone asked for a bit of reprieve, and you reply with direct link to your post about AI.
EDIT: I see you edited your comment ;-) I'll leave mine, but I'm not feeling inspired. Maybe others will be. Good luck!
