AI-generated content consumption

Nowadays AI can generate very high-quality content across documents, code, images, audios, videos, 3D models, and games (which basically incorporate every medium). However, the consumption of such content is still limited by human attention and time. We might want to use AI summarization for work-related content, but not for leisure content for which direct consumption is the whole point. (OK sometimes I watch highlights without watching a game, but only if I missed it live and wished to catch up on the key moments.)

Thus, human creativity remains the deciding factor in which content will be consumed, and AI is just a tool to help produce it, in higher efficiency and (hopefully) higher quality as well. Given the homogeneity of AI-generated content, human generated content, despite being less “perfect”, may still be more unique and less appalling to human consumers.
