Computing power isn't the barrier.

The barrier is that really good writing relies on experiences and emotions. I don't doubt an algorithm could churn out a passable Hardy Boys mystery by 2050. A procedural that sticks to a basic template with basic characters and no themes to speak of.

But an AI writing something along the lines of Blood Meridian, I am quite confident saying this will literally never happen. Not unless we get fully sentient robots like Data from Star Trek.
