Okay, but in the case of a scientific report on an alien encounter and dissection, why would you include it if you don't want to write it?

I want to include paintings as decoration on my walls where I live. But I don't want to paint them.

I want a bed to sleep in, but I don't want to build it.

I want food to eat. But I don't want to grow it myself, nor would I like to raise, feed, care, and slaughter the animals I eat.

So... Maybe I want some trivia, an easter egg if you'd like, about something weird and funny. Despite not wanting to write it myself.

But why do you want these things? Does a painting have value only as an aesthetic placeholder, with no regard to the person who made it? Does it have the same utilitarian value as a bed and food? Does the trivia in your hypothetical game have that same utilitarian value?

I repeat myself. If you take the creativity out of the creative process, you're left with just a process. It's the equivalent of injecting nutrient slurry directly into your veins because you want a meal.

Sure. If that's your opinion regarding art that's ok. We don't have to argue about that. It's subjective and will change from person to person.

Regardless if something has utility or not. The point remains the same. You often want things you yourself is unable to create to an acceptable standard.

I'm not an AI fanatic. I do not believe AI makes everything better. But I do believe it can make certain things easier if used correctly. And I also think it's a big difference between someone sloppily making an entire story arc with AI, rather than someone that uses AI to fill in some of blanks.

And again. This is all subjective. But just some food for thought.

Clothes have both utility and artistic expression. But do you really care if a person made your pants, as long as they look good, are comfortable and of high quality?

I'm not trying to change your mind. Just explaining my reasoning behind my opinion.
