I agree that it can access more raw data, but human brains are remarkable and I think it’s really disingenuous to say AI is “writing” anything at all—it’s basically a plagiarism machine. Humans can actually create new things, and AI cannot. At best it can put data together into new combinations based on human input (“good prompting”). Even when AI output is indistinguishable from human writing, I think it generally reads as amateur, especially for anything longer than a paragraph. Good human writing is leagues above standard AI output, but AI outputs can match or even outperform bad human writing.
