      I don’t want to get there and I have very little faith in the “there” even being that good. Generative AI can’t really create anything that hasn’t existed before. It can create things that look new but they’re all based on things written before and things likely to be written. So it wouldn’t even be that original. It’s literally something like the Twitter or Facebook algorithms just giving you what it thinks would get reactions out of you.

        Right like. I’m looking forward to AI to fill out the edges of things. I feel like an artist can make more and more beautiful art if they can focus wholeheartedly on a subject then just be like… “oh and put some grass over there. No a little shorter. A little less lush. Perf” or a video game designer can fine tune everything the main npcs say but then auto-generate the side npc responses except like “eeeeh. Make him a little removedier.” I think it could be a great tool for filling in gaps, but not a complete replacement for human writing, at least not for a looong looong time.

        I see your point… But let’s be honest most of the human created stuff is also based on things written before, with a new face maybe but still…

          We do get new stuff though. Inspiration can still lead to new things because it can spark new ideas. Inspiration is fundamentally different than generative AI.
