I had an idea that one of my protagonists was obsessed with the idea of writing and paper because she lived in a (not so) dystopian future where AI was literally everywhere and the humans were just flesh that wealthy people used for the sole purpose of detecting patterns and performing tasks that AI could not (like correct the AIs themselves).
I thought the idea was really...silly? I mean, in what future do books not exist? In what future is writing books forbidden?
....OpenAi is literally destroying books that came out before 2022 while they reload data centers with information; millions of physical books are being destroyed because the internet is already full of AI content. MILLIONS
I'm so upset rightnow. Cause If people with money can do whatever they want, then what the hell is left for me? What's left for the rest of us? They're destroying books, they don't even reuse them and leave them as they are, THEY DESTROY THEM.
So all the people who continue to use AI, whether it's for addiction, work, whatever, be aware that they are contributing a little more and more to that dystopian future I imagined becomes true, that everyone can imagine becoming true. And it will be your fault. It will be entirely your fault.
