by | November 12, 2025

For The American ScholarDan Kagan-Kans wrote about why “some writers are writing for AI readers instead of human ones, whether everyone should do it, and what it means for the future of reading and writing.” 

Kagan-Kans writes, “Though it has been discussed far less than the replacement of human writers, the replacement of human readers by artificial intelligence has lately become a real possibility. In fact, there are good reasons to think that we will soon inhabit a world in which humans still write, but do so mostly for AI.”
