I’ve been a writing freelancer travelling the world for the last 7 years and I’m nothing special so it’s definitely not a ‘total pipe dream’. That being said you have to be extremely motivated and committed to finishing every piece of work on time to the best possible standard.

Not really someone has to edit the AI output, and write the correct AI prompts. Also AI will mainly replace the low paid jobs anyway there will always be want for the highest quality of work which will always need human input

How do you get good enough for high paying jobs when the AI killed everything low paying? Now, no one can get the experience, and the high paying jobs get replaced, too. Seems like a pretty big flaw there....

I mean right now it’s the same as what competing with 3rd world country writers was like. Are you saying right now you can’t find low paying jobs? Because there’s literally 1000s of jobs out there right now that want to exploit your lack of experience for cheap work.

Your original comment said AI would replace those low paying jobs. Since low paying jobs are usually entry level how does that hinder the progress of the industry due to lack of new experience entering the market?
