📝 Do I use AI to generate my posts?


Do I make use of AI to generate my posts?

Well, bluntly put, I’m an old-school guy. Yet not pencil-and-paper old-school.

In hindsight, luckily for me, I got well-versed in English before all of this AI fluff.

Back then, you had to hone your craft to get good. Reading a lot, racking your brains but good and, in fact, putting your skills into practice.

Writing is one of the purest forms of expression.

It is very human to write. Through writing you are able to chain your thoughts, shapes and ideas into trains of thought to then express your perception of reality or events, make an argument or drive a point home.

With writing you have time on your side to carefully weigh and consider what you’ll put on paper.

If, given enough time, for whatever reason you can’t express yourself clearly in writing, then you are missing out.

It is human to write. Languages, speech, and writing are among the most complex cognitive functions. Writing in particular keeps my brain juice flowing.

These sensations of having vivid images and shapes in my head and framing these wisps of consciousness on paper. They are magnificent.

Why would I outsource the joy of being a wordsmith to some AI?

To then do what exactly? Hype myself into a state of mental coma?

Thanks, but no thanks.
