Interesting, for me this is only true as long as the AI generated content is worse.

There's some things I really care about the human experience for, but much content it just matters to me if it's a joy to ride.

Yeah. It is difficult see AI supplanting humans for the things you go outside for, but any human involvement on the internet has always just been an implementation detail.

Yeah, right now most human written content isn't that good, either. Quality writing has largely been abandoned for verbosity and formality, offends no one, and often lacks substance or that human touch. I'm guessing AI content will be about as flavorless. But time will tell.
