Go on to Ao3 and a popular fandom, say like A Song of Ice and Fire: 9 out of 10 fanfictions written in the past two years stink to high heavens of AI. 9 out of 10.

You're waxing poetic about some sort of 'authentic' human craft, but I'm not convinced that's what most people try for when they write fanfiction. Is it possible that some or even most people write fanfiction to create the stories they want to see, and the craft of writing is just a way of achieving their goal?
