Something that clicked for me while reading this article: ChatGPT means that a person can write faster than they can read.
Over the past fifty years, technology and the internet have made it increasingly easy to produce content. And on the whole, looking back, I'd say that has been a net negative. Because our "attention", as the article puts it, is a limited resource, and the world today has too much noise and not enough signal. And that's the world before ChatGPT.
We are now at the point where producing content is easier than consuming content. That has never happened before in all of human history. And humanity is clearly not ready.
