One thing I think the pro-crowd AI crowd doesn’t understand is that actual writers enjoy the act of writing. They don’t find it tedious, they *like* solving the problems it entails.

I'd argue that for many people the process of writing is more important that the result.

The only screenwriters who like using AI for writing are aspiring executives.

Anyone who’s enjoyed something because it was hard, and then had the joy sucked out of it because they could pay to win should realize that challenge is the joy of the thing, and having anyone or anything take that away from you ruins the thing. I want to write, not push a button to have writing.

Vince Gilligan explicitly said this in interviews around the end of Breaking Bad. Paraphrasing, but he said they’d intentionally write themselves into corners and the end of episodes because the challenge of finding their way out was what was fun and made the show good.

Or at least we need to solve it, and won’t accept anyone else’s. Art is choices, mine or someone else’s, and I’d rather mine

The most true thing I read someone say is “I need AI to do the dishes and laundry so I can write more, not do my writing so I can do more dishes and laundry.”

speaking for myself, i can find it tedious, nerve wracking, upsetting. but also fun, challenging, interesting. i could see ways AI could be used as a tool or helper. but if it does the whole thing for you, what's the point? it feels like cheating

But fucking how is AI going to fucking do anything to help writers? It just isn't how writing works! Writing is universally about "why," the one thing that AI fundamentally has no concept of (to the extent it has a concept of anything).

I mean hell I will go back and re-draft *work emails* because I enjoy doing so. I do not want an LLM to try to write it for me, are you kidding?

I think this is largely true of many fields that folks are trying to replace with AI. Like I do modeling and simulation, and that involves a lot of programming. I enjoy that process. Listening to music and focusing on the flow of the analysis, the data involved, abstracting things out, etc.

And even where a writer bombs at it, that can be something _interesting_ in the failure. There could be something about the writer or the context they were working in there. What's interesting in an algorithm half-assing it? They were only interesting when they were spouting gibberish
