Jeff, thanks for crafting your thoughts on this topic. I tend to think people don't like to feel duped -- with written content, they don't want to read something they believe to be human-generated and then find out they were misled. Same with digital art, video, music, etc. With entertainment, often it's fake/staged already & people know this internally.
AI-generated code is interesting because it's lowered the barrier-to-entry that previously made building software unfeasible for the masses (same is true for creating digital art, products, content, etc). This can be compared to Ali-baba & Shopify dropping the barrier-to-enter the D2C e-commerce market to the floor. It doesn't mean all that's created will be good, or successful. It does mean that there will be much, much more of "it". What I saw with e-commerce & what we're already seeing with AI is that there will be some pretty mediocre things that win BIG, although temporarily, simply by acting very early. Jasper is a good example.
As for your question about this blog: this was the first article I read, and I enjoyed it. I read it because I was curious about a human's take (someone I know nothing about) on handmade internet content -- and I enjoyed it enough to comment. You should keep practicing the soon-to-be-lost-art of handcrafted written content creation.... if nothing else, it'll help better train the LLMs ;)
The “duped” concept is very true. You subscribe to an author and want to believe they are actually creating the product or article. This will become much harder in the future. It might encourage writers to create even more distinct formats and voices to stand out.
