I've been going through a long period in my life where I've felt like I was bottling up so much creative energy, but could never release it. When I was getting out of high school, I had a friend who I would create videos and short movies with, and bouncing ideas off of him made things work so well. I felt like we could be one of the next writing duos in Hollywood...until he moved on to other things. I've never been able to make friends like that since then, and I've tried to continue being creative, but I always just come up short.

I have been actively against AI. I hate that it can take away jobs, I hate that "art" people use it to create is basically just stealing stuff from other people, and I hate that it's big money men's next thing they hope will make them more rich. Yet, my curiosity got the better of me, and I download chatgpt just to see what it was like.

Well here I am, finding that it's....opening something up in me that I haven't felt in years. It's drawing out the creative spark that I didn't have for a long time. I was writing a short script for something, and just the help coming up with words and correct flow were so helpful. I've asked AI to come up with an outline for something, and just getting the idea for a proper beginning middle and end, I was able to write up something completely different that actually sounded good to me.

Now I'm in this predicament where I don't know if I should keep going down this path. I'm conflicted because I feel like I finally have that other voice to bounce ideas off of again, but it's...not a person. I really need a real people perspective on my predicament.

Yeah, it's ok.

Using AI is okay with me in any situation, anyone that is against it is a Luddite and can not forsee the inevitable future in which it is used in all facets of life.

I use it to make jokes occasionally, but I still feel it's not as good compared to if I drew something myself. Until we get some brain chips installed, you're better off learning a creative outlet

It's a tool.

 

[Trilobit]

I'll put it this way: Anyone not learning to use AI in a competetive way in any business will be lagging and risk falling behind. Video editors for example use all manners of helpful digital tools that didn't exist for people in the 70's and it'd be crazy to force oneself to only use analog stuff. Not even Christopher Nolan does that.

So why would you boycott this tool, but still be fine with other tech?

Risking falling behind is a selfish conundrum. We must learn of it ourselves so that we may teach others of its usefulness.

It is fire and we are Cronagman and Cronagwoman. We must learn to control it, to expand our knowledge of it, to show others it's power.

Well excuse me...I just wanted to be specific about what my predicament was.

Edit: to be honest, it's not that surprising...my brain does work differently. Unlike some other people who like to say they're autistic to be hip, i have actually been diagnosed with it, so I probably say things and sound stupid to normal people.

The interesting thing now is that when himans claim that other humans are fake or written by AI it doesn't matter if it is or not. You just have to believe that someone wouldn't write out a post with AI for a thumbs up or a fire emoji. If you're a real guy, which I know you are, you don't have to prove it us by edging a ban with words.

Speak to me like a human.

The dead internet theory--is real

The fear of dead internet theory is as real as the millions of bots that provoke the idea.

Robots have a hard time with Sex Drugs and Rock and Roll, i like all three.

Long time ago when word processors had built in thesaurus and synonym feature, I used it all the time for essays. Is it cheating I needed the program to give me 10 alternate words to use because I'm an idiot staring at the screen with limited vocabulary?

Do it. Who cares.
