Soon, however, I expect AI to write even better, more personal, and more riveting stories than humans. It is just that they are bad now that they are blocked from submissions.

Wait until we get to submit EMG/EEG/ECG emotion profiles correlated with eye tracking so we can consume and direct highly personalized stories that feel immense and moving.

Then let Facebook buy it and make you feel intimately connected to the latest product/party/trend that pays them the most.

Is it gonna happen after cars drive themselves or before?
Probably before.

The AI will figure out to pay unemployed writers pennies for small captivating stories and then stitch them together and earn the big bucks.

I'm sure.

There's a certain ick factor in consuming machine-generated content, but I suspect it's more of a resistance to change or the fact that all machine-generated content until now has been garbage. Or some romantic idea about a human having written it.

Once I get over it and try to look upon it with more childish eyes, it seems like it will be pretty amazing to generate infinite content I want instead of waiting for some human somewhere to write exactly the content that I want, if ever.
