I think upweighting the live components of academia is inevitable in the age of automatically produced writing, but I also find it depressing that people think so little of writing that they imagine it obsolete because of AI.

AI writing is aggressively, aggressively mediocre. It is only good for how cheap it is. If you're indifferent to how much better good human writing is than AI writing, you should not be the one to evaluate human writing.
