The article argues that writing is likely the safest job from AI disruption because large language models (LLMs) consistently produce formulaic, soulless prose and struggle to achieve authentic expression or insight. Writing is characterized as a “wicked problem” with no clear specifications or objective verification, requiring continuous mental modeling of the reader—capabilities that current AI lacks.
