So what was the last dog-authored book you liked? /s

Most people can distinguish good writing from that which is merely serviceable, but un-engaging. Reading the latter is like a slow death if its in book form or attempting to be literary fiction.

For news articles and other stuff that's being automated, it's replacing what is already a heavily templated process. The writing there is fine. It's not what I'd call interesting though. That's the difference an actual writer can make.

Sure, but you're talking about the current reality of AI written content, there may very well be very engaging content in the future by AI.
