Proofreaders, perhaps. But spellcheckers are superior, free, battle-tested, and ubiquitous anyway, yet people still can't be troubled to use them. As proof, behold comments on any given HN post.

True, LLMs can convert style — but so far I've found that the edits always pick up an LLM smell.

My pet hypothesis is that genuine upper-echelon writing, editing, and taste-making will become even more valuable than before.
