Extending his argument that AI writing volumes will crowd out human readers, Paul Novosad proposes institutional separation: build dedicated spaces for fully AI-integrated writing/reviewing workflows, distinct from human venues like literary scenes, op-eds, and academic journals. If AI workflows prove better, they'll defeat the old media on merit — but current institutions shouldn't be destroyed in advance before the outcome is known.
