Enough Doomerism
AI is the greatest tool ever built for writers.
While everyone freaks out about AI destroying human creativity, you can use AI to:
- Help you pull out and develop hidden ideas in your writing
- Organize and mine your reading to support and develop your writing ideas
- Build a personal website to create a permanent home for your work
- Edit and tighten up your work (without having AI rewrite it)
- Help you see new ways to connect your previous ideas
And so much more.
I am so excited about the future of writing, bolstered by what AI can help do to enrich and support our work.
ChatGPT really started to take off a few years ago while I was at Write of Passage. At that time, it was hard not to feel that AI would eventually destroy human writing, and that was disheartening.
I feel 100% differently today.
Writers who embrace AI have a bright future.
