I started off feeling hopeful/excited by OpenAI, GPT-3, DALL-E, etc, as a creator/writer. As time has progressed and I've used these tools and other machine learning tools to create media, I've become disillusioned. It feels as if this is about to explode an existing problem, namely, there's too much content in the world already. Lowering the effort bar for content creation and generation is, in some ways, going to cause a deluge of low-quality/mid-quality content to be generated.

I wonder if we'll see a new generation of "editors" showing up to help curate and provide some guidance in terms of what to play if you're limited on time. I often go through the new releases on Steam and I'm amazed at how many games are released that have zero reviews, or less than 5 reviews, yet people are still constantly releasing more and more. I'm sure some of those games are masterpieces, but will never see the light of day.
