As an author who is currently under contract to finish a book, I'm a bit annoyed that AI really
can't write for me. I'm busy, I really like writing, but writing a good book does involve serious time researching and exploring. I've tried to have AI help me through, but I've more often than not had to dive into source code and run experiments to make sure I understand what's going on. It's even a book
on AI, so there would be no shame at all in using AI to write it.
> So what am I good for anymore?
And here I was thinking this question is why writers write at all. Who else would do something requiring so much work for so little reward but those who fundamentally think they aren't worth much, it's what unites us.
But I don't think I worry about being replaced, not because I'm irreplaceable, but because if I could be completely replaced I think that might be quite a delightful experience. Imagine all those people who need something from you satisfied. That's what being replaced would entail: not a single person demanding a single thing from you. But unfortunately no, I'm still needed here, annoyingly.
