For those who do not see the danger of advanced AI generated text being rolled out everywhere, imagine a web where you have to carefully read everything you see in order to determine if it’s written by a human before you can start to take the text seriously.

That means no more skimming threads to get the gist of what people are saying, no more skimming through answers on stackoverflow, no more skimming through articles.

An article that looks reasonable on a cursory glance only begins to fall apart when you spend (waste) time reading it carefully.

It also means anyone posting content must spend extra effort proving they are a human for their readers.

Conversely, maybe the people who should be replaced by such AI are teachers and professors.

What if you could beneficially weaponize an AI to teach children/people a vast body of knowledge quickly on any given subject.

Please see the movie; Lawnmower Man

Nobody is disputing that AI can be useful, so your comment seems to be missing the point.

It would be slightly more coherent to at least point to a potential use case for text generation specifically.
