Hello, I recently read your post about Ai and I wanted to know your opinion on this
My brother likes reading and writing, its something he always loved
But sometimes when he is tired and does not have the energy to write a new story from 0 or find a new story to read he likes to write a story prompt (short or small depending of his inspiration) and use a AI to generate a story for him to read
He never posted any of the AI stories and he always deletes them after reading
So, is it wrong to use it if no one ever knows?
I think your brother should consider what he actually likes about reading and writing, or if he actually likes them at all, because he's doing himself a huge disservice by engaging with AI-generated content.
The "wrongness" about using AI isn't that other people know you're doing it, it's about the way it absolutely flattens the human experience and art into something non-human and without soul or passion to it, the fact that it plagiarises both written and visual work that many people have put blood sweat and tears into, and perhaps most crucially, it's about its unbelievably harmful effects on the environment.
If you're "too tired" to write a story, then sorry to break it to you, but you simply do not want to write the story. I can empathise with the frustration of writer's block because I often very badly want to write but I'm busy, or I don't have any ideas, or I'm not in the right headspace, or whatever. But at the end of the day, I want to write a story because I'm a writer, and I enjoy writing. If I ask the AI to write the story for me, then I've not written the story.
So what is the point of that? Would you ask an AI to eat your favourite food for you? Would you ask it to go on holidays for you?
If you enjoy reading, what is the point of reading something that wasn't even written by a person? Stories are built of people's experiences and imaginations and emotions and all of the complexities of being human, and an AI can't recreate any of that. It's empty, it's antithetical to every part of what creating art means, and the less people engage with art, the more we lose of ourselves and our ability to build connections with one another and the world we share.

generally you shouldn't write run-on sentences because they get confusing and it doesn't give the reader a break. that doesn't apply to me though my run-on sentences are fun and understandable and they have a rhythm to it that makes you want to keep reading

Happy Sunday! Gad to hear you're back in the writing seat! It's always different when you've been away from it for so long - feels like shaking your brain for loose words like change out of a piggybank sometimes. Are you having fun with it again? Sending good vibes and good writing thoughts your way! - SMA
hello happy sunday!! i AM having fun with it even though i feel very much like i'm wandering around in the dark in a place that i really should know by touch by now. it's kind of frustrating but also feels good to know that once i'm back in the groove i can get something going ykwim.
how about you!! is the weather warm where you are yet, and if it is are you starting to fill your home with flowers? (i am nearly there myself)
song rec for this week is a very long and listen-to-in-the-background-or-with-your-eyes-closed kind of song: Opening by Sages, Ćlafur Arnolds, and Loreen

Nobody, really, nobody changes their mind on ai because of a post made on an app that is full of ai content
People will still use it because of how useful it is, they are lazy people, yeah, but it is still useful
youāre wrong and also a loser for putting this in my inbox
