I mean the tools will get streamlined to the point where the users can have the software itself send out effectively infinite submissions of auto-generated garbage “content” without having to bother with the manual work themselves.
I can’t see publishers getting into it because if it ever hits the point where the output isn’t garbage (or publishers think it might be worth printing), the publishers themselves are going to be obsolete as well. Why pay for stories when you can pay directly for (access to) a story-producing machine? There’s no room for a publisher in that dynamic.
