It began as a boon, and then like a Steven Spielberg thriller – is now being spoken about as a bane. Personally, I am not afraid of AI taking away my job, since I don’t really have one. But amidst all the jobs that AI is threatening to take away, there is one that nobody seems to be speaking about – the local storyteller.
