Even last year, I didn't consider artificial intelligence (AI) a threat to a travel journalist. Artificial intelligence applications seemed clumsy, and open-source language models primarily silly.
I have made an effort to research and follow the development. Although I see a lot of opportunities, I also see threats that the price of billable work will collapse either directly when artificial intelligence replaces a human as a writer or when artificial intelligence makes it possible for people who previously could not write publishable articles.
Have you noticed that the number of articles produced directly with artificial intelligence has increased? Or that there has been a significant decrease in writing fees?
An example of an artificial intelligence (AI) application that already creates publishable articles for some uses is, for instance, Surfer. What worries me the most is the pace of development. When the content it writes is already so good, how good will it be next year?

Here's an interesting video created by Nils Bakker (a 3D designer based in the Netherlands) that uses Google's Photorealistic 3D Tiles API, launched last week.
The software prompts the user for a place to visit, then creates an animated fly-through, using Unreal Engine guided by ChatGPT output.
He writes: "Using Unreal Engine 5.1, I embarked on a technical adventure when the Google Maps 3D tiles API was released. With an ambitious goal in mind, I challenged myself to complete this project within a tight one-week deadline."

Wow! This is cool! Not great for motion sickness but awesome to see how this works! Thanks for sharing!
