Ask HN: Will LLMs increase or decrease the value of human-written text?

LLMs let us generate plausible sentences that may as well have been written by a human. I’m expecting there to be a flood of LLM-generated text on the internet in the coming years. I’ve been wondering about the value of human-written text. Specifically, both Twitter and Reddit have closed off programmatic access to their vast amounts of text, having supplied training data for free for so long. Do you expect there to be a premium on human-written text? Or for LLMs to displace the need for human-written text?
