Automation is great, I love automation. But the point of the article is that this AI tech is not automating writing, what it is doing is automating a facsimile of writing, and that to accept the output of these algorithms as equally valid works of art as those made by actual people is a damaging and nihilistic worldview.
If the end consumer cannot tell the difference and interprets the AI-produced facsimile as the real thing, there is no effective difference
