I think an AI future is one that is inevitable, which is why I want to invest some time poking around regardless.
Do I think that the best stories will still be written by humans? Absolutely! Humans have specific voices, and you can feel through the writing a lot of times their connection to their characters and ideas. However, I do agree with some of the posters' above, who talk about (1) how some writing is pretty crappy lol and (2) that as humans we are influenced by other people's writing and that is remixing too (just not algorithmic).
I see there will be co-existence. Maybe the sad part is the basic writing will be taken over by AI and humans who aren't that good won't make as much money there. But people who write well or who readers really like will still have fans
