Firstly, I've always enjoyed your works and I appreciate you being transparent about this truly controversial topic.
My two cents on this topic.
People have been using fossil fuels all their lives because they were told those were the only ones available and affordable, to a point where now, the world economy is completely reliant on those environment-destroying fuels.
But now, we are getting warned, by really intelligent, wise and worried voices, about a future in which we allow AI to completely take over the arts and every single field , activity, job and finally aspect that makes us human, and we are on the verge of this becoming an irreversible path unless we take action now.
It starts like this, "oh everyone is using AI to improve their craft, why shouldn't I"?
And then it's too late to quit and you are unable to do something that once made you happy without the help of some LLM. An LLM that, by the way, has been trained on pirated books and works of real authors.
Again I truly appreciate your honesty, and I don't think that using AI as a pseudo-editor is the same as asking it to write everything for you or to come up with ideas... but... some of us might eventually wonder who's actually writing the story we've been enjoying for so long. Is it an actual human being, capable of experiencing the emotions he's trying to convey in his FVN, or a piece of code developed by a heartless corporation?
IMHO, and this is MY opinion which might, of course, not reflect how other readers feel about it. I'd be really disappointed finding out that the ideas are coming from AI and not you.
Edit: Sorry about the grammar and the weird style, English isn't my first language.
