It's something that's really been worrying me these days. With AI creating literally floods of information, it's getting noisier and noisier.

Case in point, I've let AI help me write some documentation; I'd probably end up writing just as much in the end so I don't think there was much waste, but in the back of my head there's two voices now. The one says "nobody will actually read this. I wouldn't, but I think it should be written down just in case". But the other says "an AI will ingest all of this and give everything equal consideration, unlike most humans" So yes, it is getting noisier, but as long as there's enough oversight and aggressive editing / cutting, it's probably manageable and hopefully helpful for our AI overlords.
- boznz 5mo agoReading non-fiction maybe, but reading fiction is about escaping and immersing yourself in another world for a few hours, like gaming, and I doubt people will ever stop doing either.
- boznz 5mo agoYes, not a good time to be a new author, as I well know, but you also need to go back to the title of this post "why I write" - There is a lot more to wanting to write than fame and money (which you are very unlikely to see either of)
