SURPRISE INSIDE
Here’s Proof That AI has no Idea What Good Writing is
The accident that made me swear off AI assisted writing
Stop using AI as a tool for writing. All of it. It’s making your headline and story worse. No LLM understands what good writing is no matter how it’s prompted. All it knows is SEO and gaslighting.
Never let a machine write for you. Don’t use it as editor. Stop using it for ideas. It turns every headline into a question or an interrogative sentence. It suggests the same thing to everyone. If everyone does the same thing, nothing stands out.
“ChatGPT said my story was unique and important…”
What do you expect it to say? I’m afraid you might be illiterate. Would you like me to see if your local library has adult reading classes?
I’m not anti AI. It’s fun to play with and ask questions. Reading AI writing makes me hate reading. AI writing is everywhere and it sucks.
Think you’re slick deleting the bullet points? Your custom prompt only changes the tone and verbiage AI uses to write it. Underneath all your tricks is the unmistakable AI word salad that’s nothing but iceberg hearts and ranch dressing.
