That sentence sounds nice but what does it even mean?

Does the value of written content come from it being written by a human, or the fact that it's enjoyable to read and/or transfers useful information/knowledge? Whether a person wrote it or not is irrelevant. It's almost like complaining someone used a typewriter instead of hand writing something.

It's entirely relevant. If you've chucked a prompt at ChatGPT and called it a day, the output is an approximation of human thought. There is no originality, it is text vomited onto a page that may, or may not, resemble human creativity.

If you're content with that, then bully for you. The rest of us want words written by humans.
