He said: “I don’t see any evidence whatsoever that AI seems to be killing writing.
Let’s say we have a system that can write better than a human. Do you think the most popular novel of 2027 has a human name on it or not?
When I finish a great book, the first thing I go do is I want to know more about the writer. I want to know their life story. And I don’t think I’ll ever have that feeling about AI writing.
There’s something about reading an incredible book and connecting to a person. Even though you don’t literally know them, you feel like you do and you feel like you have this important shared human experience, and that’s a significant percentage of the enjoyment of a great book to me.
I bet we’ll keep doing that.”
