Dear AI, Should I Quit Writing?. by Marco Sumayao

I've been of the opinion lately that, if they weren't born into privilege, every writer in the third world needs to quit their job. On my end, that entails giving up a 15-year career that's given me everything I could've possibly hoped for: close friends, a remarkable portfolio, a diverse network of clients, and several lifetimes' worth of memories, from staging sex comedies at the CCP to getting a grant for a childhood dream. At the same time, however, all that experience includes having been on several sinking ships. I feel like I've gotten fairly good at spotting one that's about to go under. These days, that ship's name is Writing Itself, and AI's got an eye on the hull and a drill in hand.
