Why limit yourself only to experiences curated by humans? You wouldn't do that outside of reading, it'd be an impossible limitation to impose. The only reason reading has been that way is because only humans could write. Now machines can write, and I can tinker and play with reading the same way I would with anything else.
- debesyla 2y agoWait, I wouldn't want to get recipe or furniture suggestions from a human? It would be impossible? I can see how it could be a burden, but can't see how it would be impossible... (Or am I misunderstanding?)
- Gracana 2y agoI don't know what your question means. OP said "why should I be bothered to read what nobody could be bothered to write," which I think is silly, because I enjoy all kinds of things that nobody bothered to create. Things that exist naturally, randomly, or arise through rules or physical laws. Waves on the beach, a fractal, a game of sudoku, a campfire at night. Until recently, humans were the only source of writing. If you wanted to read something, it had to be something written by a human. Now you can read things that weren't written by a human, just like you can watch or smell or feel things not created by humans. I think that's neat. I don't think it devalues writing, at least not inherently.
