Google results and app stores are already filled with low-effort trash. If this gets worse, then the importance of "influencers"[1] as curators of the trash pile rise even more.

> People who have money will always pay a premium for quality.
The assumption here is that the Venn of "people who have money" and "people who can recognise / care about quality" is closer to a circle than a figure eight - that has not been my experience.
Well, yeah - I guess we're even calling into question the very definition of the word quality here. Your comment seems to imply that quality is a metric that correlates with quantitative metrics of mass appeal, rather than personal & individually diverse concepts of subjective quality, which would be more what I was referring to. But both can be equally valid given the context.
People who have money will always pay a premium for quality.
With regards to writing, if you can create quality information with AI faster than before, you will be more profitable.
If you are going wide, and throwing spaghetti at the wall with crappy writing, you may also be able to generate $1 from a million people vs. $10,000 from 100 people.
AI threatens the middle for sure, and will force all of us to change our strategies.
