How Does it Feel To Create with Generative AI Tools?
Sharing my experience using Generative AI for writing.
Does AI scare you?
Why wouldn’t it? Lots of fiction over the years has painted AI as the thing that will end humanity (see the Terminator and Matrix movies). Then, it inevitably raises several ethical and moral questions. Can/will AI steal copyrighted material in what’s created? Will it take away jobs — even those of artists? Will we be competing with AI for our creative identity?
Scary, right? And what’s more, because Artificial Intelligence learns, there are all sorts of concerns that it will learn wrong, poorly, or worse — that it no longer needs humans and so it will act accordingly.
Sci-fi dystopia notwithstanding — the current generation of Generative AI isn’t that smart. What’s more, while it is getting better at things, and becoming a better autonomous creator — it’s still imperfect and needs human interaction to do anything.
As part of one of my work gigs, I’ve employed a couple of Generative AI tools. And to help you understand what that’s like, I thought I would share my experience.
