If You’re Only A “Content Creator,” You’ll Be Replaced By AI
The age of the “content creator” is over, and AI will put it out of its misery.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.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.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 Awaken Your Genius:“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.”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.
