It doesn’t take much big brain to mistrust the ideas coming from AI. How are those children’s books written by AI and sold on Amazon coming along?
It also doesn't take much of a big brain to realize you can do more with AI than to use it as a writer or as an ideation tool for writing, which is a bad way to use it. Which goes back to my point that you need better critical thinking to criticize AI, because this ain't it.
My criticism of AI in this thread sums up to: it sucks for long form writing, and also for creating kids’ books.
Your thing is, be better at criticizing AI. Ok. Go ahead.
And my point is that if you dismiss AI as a whole because of these criticisms, you're failing to see that AI can be used other ways. But I'm not talking about you, I was responding to someone else.
