If the routine and mindless tasks of humans are moved to automation, those humans are now free to actually create.
You say you use AI to generate mundane articles. Well, your mundane AI article about baseball and 10,000 other AI generated articles are competing with quality content written by real people.
There are people who are passionate about baseball, who went went out to watch that baseball game and write about the passion behind every play and every ball. Possibly interviewing the crowd and the players.
Your AI is probably learning from those articles and getting better at faking that passion. So much so that in a few years maybe people won't be able to tell the difference.
Photographs took up the mantle of depicting reality and painting became more about visual expression of feelings, perhaps.
Assisted AI apparently now designs our cars and our planes, designs our logos, designs our buildings, generates our music.
More significantly, un-assisted AI curates what we are exposed to in the form of what's shown to us in our feeds and suggestions, and judging by the articles in OP, already is capable of writing articles for us. AI voices and news casters seem to be getting better by the day.
I can't tell where this is going anymore.
