A really good dissertation on the soul of writing. I use AI in my writing after I have written the article for review of grammar and punctuation. As an artist I was terrible at English and took 1A a couple of time before I got my degree. I use it as a tool much like I use a calculator when paying bills. With Midjourney I find it interesting to describe my final painting in as much detail as I can as a prompt and see what it generates. Some times I am surprised and pleased as it gives me a different perspective and opportunity to refine or add to my finished piece. This is the balance between concept and execution. As long as the concept is mine I don’t mind being open to variations in execution. In short it to me is a degree of moderation and taste. Nice long article I enjoyed every idea well presented.
This is so on point! I can feel when something is written by AI. It has an energy to it. Maybe not always, but often I can feel it. I believe people will eventually put quite a high value on artists, writers and musicians who know their craft without AI. There’s no short cuts to people’s soul.
I agree. AI could never replicate my true emotions, my culture, nor who I am . Those who know me would immediately recognize the dissonance, even lack if typos (wink). Nope, not gonna.
Thank you for taking the time to put into words what I already Intuit. In my case, art was the process that I was being tempted by others to delegate to Midjourney...I just arrived to a similar conclusion but couldn't speak it up as eloquently.
I am so with you Clintavo. I have tried to suggest this without saying that those that use AI writers are no writers. But as you articulately pointed out this is the truth. The saddest thing to me is that many of these writers are using AI for their money press and that is so wrong. Oh well, I wanted to send a message to you of unbridled support. Randy.

This is my secret belief - that AI will not make human interaction less valuable, it will make it more valuable.

How might we share your article to other platforms?
I guess just post the URL to those platforms though many of them de-prioritize linking out but that's about all that can be done. I appreciate it: https://clintavo.substack.com/p/an-ai-writer-is-no-writer-at-all
I wholeheartedly agree. AI has its place but not something that interests me.
As a visual artist, I love being in the moment, solving problems and always learning more
Once we decide we know it all, something greater than ourselves is lost.
Thanks for saying so much of what I have thought. Bravo
Well said !
