Yeah I'm totally with you.
I would even go as far as saying: an AI that trains on released books and can write new texts shouldn't be seen as bad either. Yes there is a lingering question about compensating writers in some way, but looking at how these tools work basically makes you realize, it will never generate a text as good as an original writer on its own. It can only ever be less than all the median of all the works collected. And it will not store the original works, it only learns the style they are written in.
And I'm kind of scared as well. If we don't make AI happen and figure out the right monetization systems for it, another country will, and they might give zero fucks and start crawling the works anyway. We'll just lose the upper hand on the development.
And I am saying that as someone who will be on the other end too, soon. I am a music producer, developer and I do 3d compositions. I am a bit scared of what's about to change but mostly just stoked to see what different aspects of my work will become more and less important.
I still believe change is good. And I always will.
