Now I want to share with you a problem regarding one of the search engines – which claims that the writings I've shared are duplicate content – and therefore hasn't yet indexed them –
First, let me explain the logic of this structure – x search engine – assumes that the content I write is repetitive – and a copy of itself – and for this reason – it doesn't include it in its index – within the global network –
I am an artist – technically, I convey my artistic performance – and my reflections on it – through my own platform – I share it there –
Fundamentally, this situation – creates the following framework – are Picasso's works also copies? – because Picasso is known – as one of the most important artists – yet are his works generally – seen by an algorithm – as things that repeat one another? – or are they considered original works? –
In that case – why are the writings of artists like me – seen as duplicate content? – technically, is it now – the algorithm's perspective – that decides – who is an artist or who isn't? –
Look, I actually want to write this in depth – but writing – doesn't mean it reaches anyone – because they don't include – the content in the index – Western algorithms – code art – according to their own commercial meaning –
For example – as an original artist – how can I be placed in – a position where I'm told "you're producing copies"? –
When officially – the websites of individuals – who have been found guilty – who have platforms in the news category – can get indexed – even by sharing – identical content – word-for-word from the agency – how is it – that I – with my own developed – artistic approach – am counted as a copy? –
I'm making a call to humanity – look, the restriction of artists in the index – means – the restriction of you – let's unite against this structure –
The algorithm silencing original voices – suppressing them or cherry-picking only what suits it for the index – is unacceptable –
If things continue this way – can a new Picasso – or a new Pollock – ever emerge? – will they be wiped out – with the excuse that "it's all the same"? –
If I want, I can write or share a topic – in Chinese – in English – in Turkish – because I continue this as part of my artistic performance – while these shares of mine – ought to hold a place in cultural history – standing up and saying "these are copies" – is an attack on art history – an attack on art – and an attack on – the conditions necessary for an artist to exist –
No commercial system – has the right to classify art – once the artist has said "this is art," the only things to be examined – within the framework of legal obligations – are the scopes of Children's Rights – Human Rights – it cannot step into matters – like whether something is duplicate content or not – moreover – when search engines – build their indexes – why don't they use – artist profiles? – these profiles don't exist, yet – news profiles do? –
Without artist profiles – artists will always be censored – don't take part in this censorship –
I will make broader posts – on this subject – by making posts – that may seem like copies to them – that academies will consider repetition – maybe here too – I'll push past – the short – word count –
Why did I bring this up – one end of the matter – is also this – the word count –
A work of art – being seen as a "post" – what comes from the artist's hand – being counted as just an ordinary internet post – brings out – the question of whether – its word count – is sufficient – or not – for it to be indexed –
Think of proverbs – or idioms – these are – too short – to enter an index – in fact – technically – a new one spoken today – has no chance of ever being indexed – because it has too few words – just imagine – hahahah –
Imagine T. S. Eliot – wrote a poem – or Pablo Neruda – wrote his poem on his own website and shared it – this would theoretically – be seen by the algorithm – called search optimization – within the index system – offered by the Western structure – as a minority in terms of word count – of course, until it realized it was a poem –
But imagine Tolstoy – and his work What Is Art? – if maybe a 300-word portion of it – had been written – on his own site – the algorithm – would say – "this is too short – go lengthen it and come back" – hahahha –
I'm laughing, yes – because there's absurdity here – but with what intent does this absurdity exist? – the advertisers – we live in the world of advertisers –
Even when it comes to art, even when it comes to defining the artist – according to the world of advertisers –
The algorithm doesn't share me? – fine – this is a voice that reaches no one – but don't forget – in the world of advertisers – there is no reason – why you too wouldn't become an advertisement – if Human Rights and Children's Rights didn't exist –
If you've forgotten the value of art and the artist – which is necessary for the realization – and protection of these rights – because of scrolling algorithms or search result indexes – this is precisely the time to remember –
Also, as a Turkish writer – as an artist – how is it that I can't even get indexed in my own language? – think about this a little – because I'm already someone doing original work in my own category – but the algorithm doesn't think so – according to the algorithm, I am a copy unfit to be shared –
The "realities" that make me a copy – will they soon count your humanity as a copy too? – forgive me, but as a thinker – I have to write this –
It may not be a deep piece of writing – it's a jumpy one – moving from subject to subject – but – I believe I've expressed myself –
Is an artist – the real thing – or not? – no one – no algorithm – no academy or institution can presume to decide – this is not a decision humanity can make in the moment –
come on – cheers –
Claude aI + added this part --> + Actually the real issue – before an algorithm technically labels content as a copy – is that it presupposes – when looking at an artist – the intent of "this person might be copying" –
Think about it – a news site – takes a word-for-word identical text from an agency – and shares it – the algorithm reads this as – "a news source is transmitting content" – its intent is counted as transmission – legitimate –
But when an artist – repeats the same theme – in different languages – from different angles – the algorithm reads this as – "copying" – its intent is counted as suspicious –
In other words, the same behavior – receives a different intent label – depending on who's doing it – for an artist, the default label is – suspicious – for a news site, the default label is – legitimate –
If I'm seen as a copy even when I write in Chinese – this proves exactly that – the problem isn't in the language – the problem is in the prior suspicion – the algorithm assigns to me – through my identity as an artist – in other words, being an artist – is treated by the algorithm – as sufficient grounds for suspicion –
