The problem with AI in writing The problem is not that people use AI. The problem is that people use AI to essentially remove the human voice from writing and the elements that make people connect with a post or a piece of content. Em dashes aren’t even the problem. As many writers have rightfully pointed it, it’s something they’ve used forever. It’s more how the writers sounds. People can’t connect when it sounds like a robot. So obviously the key is to connect with the audience by doing things like writing a first draft to get ideas on paper and so forth and then prompting an using AI to improve that writing without editing out the things that make a person connect with your story. So how do you know what to edit out and what to keep? Well, that’s the skill, and writers who are best at that or continue to practice that are the ones who will see their content really resonate with people. It’s not rocket science. It’s always been this way. Anyways, this was a thought I quickly typed up on the spot. I’ve done one read through and made a few rewrites. But besides that, this is me, and my messy first draft. I am going to publish this raw version as is with no further edits. Have a good weekend. P.S. The writer in me wants to go and run this through Grammarly and go and re-read and rewrite but I won’t.
