The direct answer is "no." However, it is nonetheless going to stick with us. I find it hard to think that writers get satisfaction out of delegation instead of, you know, writing.

Sure, if we're talking about writing for it's own sake. Most of what people use AI for is, like, emails and advertising copy. Maybe porn. Book reviews and newsletters, per this article. It's all writing that's secondary to some other purpose.

I write mostly because it helps me organize my own thoughts. Granted, professional writing shouldn't be that, but ... well, what's a column if not that?
