Humans vs. AI in content creation, what’s your opinion on this?
I see this as more of Human scarcity vs. AI abundance question, keen to hear what you guys

- I don't think it is necessarily "vs". Too many think about AI as adversarial, when in fact they themselves are largely cyborgs already, entirely dependent on machines telling them what to buy, watch, listen to. This is the first time we have the ability to have AGENCY over the machines, have them make output FOR us, and people are somehow more scared of this than of themselves being controlled by AI.
Inevitably, AI will replace much white collar and creative work. And, well, that's fine. The outcome is what matters - do people enjoy the content? If they do, what does it matter who made it? If anything, it will make you appreciate human-made work all the more.
Just recently, I was thinking about how much the NFT publication traffic slowed to a crawl on Singular.app, our modular NFTs marketplace. I saw a ton of AI stuff and felt kinda "meh". But then I saw an artist I liked make a really cool new digital painting along with an attached "making of" video and I was blown away by how much more it meant.
So yeah... use AI as a tool. Enjoy it. Do not fear it. It can teach you a lot. You can teach it a lot. And let's step into the future all together.
It is okay to use AI while writing, just be clear if it did most of the work, purely out of honesty.
- The key on this is the interaction between both, for an improved output overall. AI production -with- human curation is set to go further than any of them isolated.
