Human decision making is often driven by greed. AI will allow us to generate essentially infinite customizable content, probably with the ability to imitate famous beloved authors. There’ll probably be softwares you can employ to generate your own stories, and make them infinitely customizable.
We’re at the very beginning and we already see Amazon swamped with AI generated content and art. I’m worried about the future of literature. I’m worried about the future of humanity.
I have no understanding of how people are so confident everything will be fine. Again, we’re profit driven. I don’t think publishers are going to stand for the moral ground.
It already feels like (with how rampant social media content is) nothing is special anymore.

I apologize for the length of the video, but I promise it’s good.
AI is not creative, it’s exploitative. It is not capable of improving on itself, especially when it comes to the basic questions of humanity that literature engages in.
Could it write a decent run of the mill YA pop novel? Sure, maybe. Could it create a work of long-form journalism? No. A truly challenging novel about modern life? No.
It’s not actually intelligent, and every part of it still relies on human labor.
