1 year for this tech to be incorporated into most cheap/free creative tools.

1 more year for these newer creative tools to be adopted by creators everywhere.

1 more year for the humans to completely give up.

You have to remember that tech takes time to permeate to the bottom rung. Most of my non tech friends haven’t even heard of Dall-E, let alone chatGPT.

1 year? The Internet's already rife with SEO spam without ML algos creating convincing looking copy. They'll copy a site wholesale just with a different domain name. Spammers are probably already using this to generate copy for websites.
