@NS – I guess I’m just not convinced that the first draft writing is necessarily the highest creative part of my work. I could give the computer a broad outline, and it decides what quotes and facts support each bullet point of the outline. But then I’m the one who goes in and gives it more character and polish. A camera captures a scene better than any artist can with paints or pencils… but computers certainly haven’t put artists out of work, since it turns out there’s more to art than creating a faithful visual representation — it’s about ideas and impressions and the like.
