This keeps repeating in different domains: we lower the cost of producing artifacts and the real bottleneck is evaluating them.
For developers, academics, editors, etc... in any review driven system the scarcity is around good human judgement not text volume. Ai doesn't remove that constraint and arguably puts more of a spotlight on the ability to separate the shit from the quality.
Unless review itself becomes cheaper or better, this just shifts work further downstream and disguising the change as "efficiency"

This applies not only to applications, but also to relating texts through ideas close to transclusion in Ted Nelson’s Xanadu.
