Not the most intellectual contribution but I saw a meme (lol) that said something along the lines of, "in the past they pictured a future wherein we implemented ai to do menial tasks so people could be free to explore their passion. Instead we'll implement ai to do artistic tasks to people can be free to do menial tasks." I'm sure I'm butchering that interpretation but it's a bleak interpretation of late stage capitalism, imo.

Right on! Let AI do the math and crap while I play in my paints and write my crazy stuff.

That's frighteningly bleak but seems all too real.

I want the Star Trek future. The computer could do just about anything but it needed the right input and for the crew to ask the right questions. In the meantime, they spent their free time exploring their creative outlets.

I can see AI helping writers with stuff like dialogue or being more eloquent, maybe imitating a specific style. However the issue is that AI doesn't understand what is being written. It is likely that it would write nonsensical sentences.

If AI can reach the level of general intelligence, so it understands context, than it can possibly "write" somekind of story - likely still very derivative, but coherent. The issue is it's still very far away, if it's possible at all.
