The typing is the means of communicating the thinking. If you are "doing the thinking" and the AI is doing the "typing" then either you are instructing the AI to generate additional content without original thought (which is a waste of your time, the AI's time, and the reader's time), or the AI is actually doing some of the thinking (in which case your job can be automated).
The programers use AI to make art. The artists use AI to write. The writers use AI to program. I think we're all in denial by both just how much our own value is at risk, and also the real value of AI (less than advertised). A bit paradoxical.
I really appreciated this reply, especially the excellent illustration of the rock-paper-scissors relationship of people in different disciplines justifying selling out the other specialties to AI.
I hate this constant circular backstab of "Oh, I don't do [thing], I'll let the machine rip off the person that does for me."
