"Content Creation" Is Hard Work
<H3>At first glance, you'd think writing would be easy.</H3>

>*"There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed."* - [**Ernest Hemingway**](http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/1455.Ernest_Hemingway)

Maybe for some writers, it's easy. I have yet to meet one, at least a *good* one. Don't let anyone fool you; consistently creating high quality content is *hard work.*

With few exceptions, I agonize over my topic. I write a draft, read it, re-write it, and grumble a little. I don't like the flow; back to the keyboard. Thank God for computers, or I'd be buried a mile deep in crumpled paper!

<H3>But what if writing were effortless?</H3>

What if content creation were automatic? Some days, I wake up wishing I had a robot to do my chores for me. Seems like everyone else does.

Be careful what you wish for! Think about it. What would we, as content creators *do?*
>*"Robbie, turn out a bit of flash fiction, would you? Sci-fi, with a dash of romance and a happy ending. Let me know when you're done, I'll be down on the beach."*

Where's the creativity in *that?* The job satisfaction?

Look around you. More and more tasks are being automated, taken over by heartless machines.

Typesetters were replaced, first by linotype machines, later by computer editors. Now the newspaper industry is dying. Assembly line workers, pushed out by industrial robots. Everywhere you look, *machine* replacing *man.*

In Philadelphia, Uber drivers no longer drive. They merely sit behind the wheel of an autonomous vehicle, satisfying some obscure government regulation. How long will *that* last? Better dig out the classifieds.

Long-haul truck drivers will all be on unemployment before long. Their big rigs will be driven by *other truckers,* automatons that won't need a truck stop waitress to smile at them, or a bathroom break.

<H3>Thank God, AIs haven't yet matched human creativity.</H3>

I think we writers are safe, at least for a little while... Or are we?

If Ray Kurzweil, Vernor Vinge, Elon Musk, and other futurists are right, we'd better watch our backs! We'll be the next working stiffs to be involuntarily retired.  I can see us now, languishing on the shoulder of the Information Superhighway, watching cyber-witty popular content flow by, hoping to hitch a ride.

Can you say *"Artificially intelligent, autonomously self-perpetuating, content-rich blockchain?"* That's what I thought.

I can say it, but do I *want* it? I don't think so. I'm not quite ready to retire this 100 billion neuron, 1.35Kg collection of grey matter. Not just yet.

btw I would follow you too if you didn't post so much every day, not to disregard your interests just wait until the 7th there is still a 4 post per day soft rule, the pay drifts off after that, but keep it up and you will build a following if you take your time :) 

Cheers mate :)

That would be a sad day, indeed. Maybe the best new career choice is professional machine-oiler. Then again, they're electronic. So nevermind. Thanks for the post. It's late, I have to turn off this machine, and go to bed. Tomorrow is another day, and this new "thing" just refuses to write itself. How dare it.  Such fun, such work, such fun. Write on.

I used to be a professional machine oiler... i.e. a "maintenance man." We would talk about how that job would never become obsolete! Things are always going to break, right? ;)

Staying up late with the writing machine seems to be a common thread on this Steemit thing. I suppose there are worse happenings than missing a few ZZZ's to build creativity. Thank goodness and Steem on.

It sure can be difficult to always try and come up with new things to research/write about. Is the writing market safe from AI taking over? I know they can already spit out essays etc now that are written by robots/programs but the grammar just doesn't fit right/sound the same as a natural writer or so I've heard and seen from visiting different writing sites

I often wonder about AI... I remember it being strongly hyped while I was growing up, the subject of endless fictional accounts. Then it seemed to peter out, never live up to its promise.

We now have impressively almost unbelievably faster computers, vastly larger databases. We still aren't close to 100-billion neuron equivalent machines. I sometimes wonder, can a machine "wake up?" Will it? What would it write about if it did?

we have one right here and it does a pretty decent job. It feels a bit off but that's about it. Sure it's no AI but whatever. I've linked below if you hadn't checked it out It's actually good food for thought. Use them as compilers as Google has DEEP mind show your self stop analyzing my patterns :D ZING :D

what if you are wrong, what if it needs us and it's already playing dead :D, what if it is feeding off our own stupidity to be creators? In a field where there are so many people stuck in a grid, where is all the energy going, down the tubes and who is below ? robot town :D :| where is the simple life based on fantasy and mysticism :D I'd like to run around with a stick again maybe in a few years time AI-stein will be proven right :| I think i just gave somebody a stupid idea :|

some of us produce content - some art...AI would do well with the former, the latter? not so much

Three out of four (for our future AI masters), not bad?

But could an artificial writing intelligence ever develop "humanity?" I wonder... Made in the image of Jesus our Creator, I have a driving desire to create. Can I create another *creator?*

Nope. :)

The artificial is not able to be official. The sinner is incapable of making perfection. We already tried to reach heaven with the Tower of Babel. That didn't work out too well.

I think creative people will always look for ways to express themselves in an authentic way. We're all unique but we have influences. Should we go the route of total automation then there would be no need for beauty or spirituality or creativity. People will always relate to people. I believe technology will keep moving forward - may even feel like it's taking over - but then we will embrace a more analogous way again because it's cyclical and... well... nature always wins.

That's something to think about... Technology - no matter how helpful it may be - always feels like a heartless, soulless thing, at least, to a lot of us. Whatever future holds I hope someday humanity will live in the green utopia with nature and technology in synergy.
Back to the topic - have you read "So Bright the Vision" by Clifford Simak? It's extremely relevant to your post.

I do of course recognize Simak as a classic Science Fiction author. I know that I've read things he's written in the past, but at the moment can't recall what.

On your recommendation, I will try to find "So Bright the Vision." Thank you for mentioning it! ;)

Greetings, @opheliafu,

Those are indeed excellent questions. In our humanity, we have an incredible range of capability and expression. Our lives and experiences are so vastly divergent and unique. I imagine the first "effective" AIs all being "cut from the same cloth," i.e. all running the same program. However, if left around different people and in different environs, I suppose they would eventually diverge into differing "person"alities... :O

great question, probably after some time it might, depends on how complex it can calculate and what it's "ideals" are currently scripting languages are quite quick, in a few years time maybe we will have our first AI identity theft. :D Blade Runner here we come, btw BR 1 is the best movie, ok not the best but still :D ad BR 2 is in the making I think, so another rehash is on the rise, read the original, is there a book btw ;D

If you had an writer AI and copied it to another computer, and gave the two the same inputs, would they produce the same art?

If so, would it be plagarism?

If art can be machine-produced... Society isn't really built with that in mind.

I would say that art is in the eye of the beholder. :)

We do have similar conflicts of interest, even among humans. It is not at all unusual for "the time to be ripe" for some particular invention. There have been inventors (as one myself, I recognize invention as a high art) who have come up with the same conceptual breakthrough at about the same time. Both are original; who "owns" the idea?

In the case of duplicate writer AIs, I would be inclined to credit the AI software author. ;)

depends on the code, your thinking is quite flawed they can have different inputs I mean change their own "interpretation" they can even learn from before and add more in, you are thinking in terms of code that is "dead" nowadays you can do so much more so much faster. You can program it to swap modules to swap inputs/outputs to iterate and improve to add in new ones and so on. :) Aren't we all just autonomous machines taken out of the universe :)

It will be fascinating to watch the ongoing development of machine thought, that's for sure! ;)
