I'm curious. What writer's rooms have been reduced because of AI? AI isn't anywhere near the level of ability of a professional writer. At all.

On top of that, I was about to join a small studio after my last gig who did just that: fire 2 writers and instead hire one AI Editor who prepares prompts for the only actual writer left. Not naming it, as I still want to work in the industry. But you bet that I don’t want to work there anymore.

Read my words again. It’s not about what AI can do. It’s about what suits who hire and fire think AI can do. CNET, Buzzfeed and Insider are three outlets who already reduced workforce and pivoted to AI usage. You see „NPCs become more interactive“ in that headline and cheer. I see jobs on the line.
