Comment on Has AI Already Killed How-To Nonfiction? Sales Trends, My Personal Data, and What It Might Mean for the Future by Chris

Rare and embodied knowledge still isn't turning up in the LLMs. AI cannot choreograph a dance routine, for example. Not enough training data and requires a detailed knowledge of human anatomy, inc range of motion, physics of interacting with world etc. It probably will at some point, but not yet.

In your circumstances, I would be asking why - a lot. Do you still enjoy it? Do you need to make money from it? There is more to life than chasing more dollars & more viewers etc.

I think I would disagree on the transform aspect. People are using AI to transform their life - from meal plans to learning a language to starting a new business. Each are tailored to their specific needs. A book looks like a hard sell next to that, even one with a choose your own adventure flavour.

The four hour work week was transformative to me, but it's really hard to see how much of it works in the age of AI and agents.
