If You’re Only A Content Creator, You’ll Be Replaced By AI

<p>The age of the “content creator” is over, and AI will put it out of its misery.</p>
<p>This may cause many to panic. Certain bloggers, writers, artists, or those who make their living out of creativity may wonder about their future. And some should.</p>
<p>The idea of a predatory program hunting you down and taking your job — like the terminator carrying a keyboard instead of a machine gun — may haunt the dreams of certain creators. But it doesn’t have to be this way.</p>
<p>In fact, just using the title “content creator,” and seeing yourself as such puts the target of this terrible AI job-stealing assassin on your head. If you lower the value of what you provide to “content,” you’ve already partially lost. But I can’t word it any better than author Ozan Varol in <a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/Awaken-Your-Genius-Audiobook/B0BBYZFBQW?source_code=GO1MB12109072190YI&gclid=Cj0KCQjwusunBhCYARIsAFBsUP_UIWadETV4aMhw-7SaO6msuE1lKEHXxHGSAe5e0vQve8E4Va_18soaAlUcEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><em>Awaken Your Genius</em></a>:</p>

<p>“A part of me dies inside when someone calls themselves a ‘content creator.’ Content is something you stuff inside a bag. It’s something you produce on an assembly line. No one wants to get up in the morning and read content over coffee. And no truly self-respecting creator wants to generate content either…Content creators can be replaced, artists can’t.”</p>

<p>With this in mind, look at the picture above of the assembly line one more time. This sums up the current issue. It’s AI-generated. I want you to notice two points: its meaning, and the details of the picture itself.</p>
