This is a process known as proletarianization. It happened to the artisans when we moved to industrial manufacture, it happened to the pastoralists when we moved to factory farming, and now they can finally go after artists and techs and editors.
Shut up with your history man I don't want to learn and want to repeat until the earth boils, what's so wrong with that?
No but really, if these tools were actually to be used in such an egregious manor of which their creators envision, their little short term stock bump means actual energy and water scarcity for a lot of us. Yay. Could be any other proletarianization, but we get the one that could really fuck us over
I am wondering if that would work for books. Most books are marketed as: best selling author brandon sanderson etc. So if a book doesn't have an author on the cover, it would be hard to sell imo. For example, when I am looking for a book to read, I always check out the author and their other works.
Maybe it will be something like this: AI writer based on best selling author brandon sardersons.
But that is probably even worse than having no author on the cover.
Fortunately, that is sure to fail. Unless we find a way to make ai have a desire to spend. No money to spend? No products to sell. Entire system goes out of balance.
