No, "tools' is far too general a statement. Tools that are well thought out and have their implications considered before release, yes - adapt and utilize them. Tools such as AI which replace human thought and expression in what is ultimately one of the few significant abilities that separate human beings from other species, I think is not useful.

Also, I know of no evidence that AI is likely to 'keep raising the standards of our craft.' What evidence is there that efficiency and speed' are coincident with good writing?
