In a compelling piece from n + 1, the editors challenge the unchecked influence of a powerful coalition of pro-AI advocates. Their critical perspective highlights several urgent themes:
- AI Bubble: Experts, including Sam Altman, acknowledge that the rapid surge of AI advancements may soon plateau.
- Intellectual Control: Professionals—such as writers and academics—must reclaim the narrative around intellectual labor, resisting the push toward AI-generated content.

AI isn’t the endgame. Alternatives exist—using traditional methods like blue-book exams or developing curricula to highlight AI’s limitations. The piece emphasizes that our choices today impact the future of our intellectual landscape.
