Just got my new edition of Bitcoin Magazine. 👇

Interestingly, on the 3rd page, it contains the statement “This magazine is AI free” - the first one I’ve seen.

As AI written content proliferates, will there be a significant market demand for such an assurance from publishers?

I think so.

Many, if not most, readers want to know whether what they are reading is straight from the fingers of a person, with no AI middleman.

I think readers will absolutely still read AI-generated content but they’ll want to know with a disclosure.

If what you’re reading is entirely written by a person, the benefit of the written value (if any) accrues to the author. The author is credited with having the idea, experience, expertise, opinion, or mix thereof, etc.

As readers and consumers, we make significant decisions based on that judgment.

On the other hand, to the extent the writing is assisted by AI, the benefit of the written value is NOT accrued to the author.

The reader may still find the written piece very valuable, but he/she naturally won’t credit the AI-wiley “author” with the idea, experience, expertise, opinion, etc. in the piece, as in the alternative scenario above.

I believe that simple difference in reader perception will, sooner than later, create the market demand for an assurance that “this [content] is AI free.”

And an automatic presumption that the content is AI-generated where that assurance is absent

What do you think?

BTW, this post is AI free. 😄
