Scary as the prospect of job losses sounds, I feel like the real threat is that AI copywriting is just going to destroy content marketing altogether as businesses try to outdo each other with more noise and people begin to tune-out of the internet once they realize just how much of it is made by bots.
I think we overestimate how much normal people are plugged into the internet and I don’t think we give enough credit to the idea that trends in internet use might reverse course once they realize every person they talk to is a bot and everything they encounter was made by bots.

While human creatives do follow trends, there is a constant strive for originality that pushes the bar forward. Now, in a corporate capitalist world where profit optimization is the prime goal above all else, we have the perfect optimization machine. The fact is that these machines are mixers. They never come up with anything original in the slightest. So if you remove the creation of original human content from which they fed initially what is left? All I can see is a destructive spiral of less and leas qualitative training that will inevitably lower the models abilities over time. In other words, these AI beating humans at their own game is a self-defeating effort in the long run.
