I don't really see how AI 'democratizes' fiction and book writing?
- lelanthran 4mo ago> I don't really see how AI 'democratizes' fiction and book writing? When people say "AI will democratise $FOO" they don't mean it the way it is usually understood: people with skill and motivation can now produce $FOO. What they mean is that people with no skill and no motivation can now pretend that they produced $FOO. Remember the "I'm the ideas guy" people who would ask you to build a complete system and offer 1% equity because "the ideas are the hard part"? Well, the future is going to be filled with "ideas guys", making it even harder to find signal in the noise.
