Using AI to develop your plot is not the same as going for a walk Aug 9, 2023

It’s not at all the same. Getting AI to help your hero out of a locked room is cheating. Especially as you know that its answers are by definition stolen from other people”s work…
Getting AI to write the whole text is only a tiny step away.
Bah!

Do you have evidence to support that statement?

Media and podcasts are always sponsored, just common knowledge.

Right.........

Bad authors might do that. Good authors will consider the AI's suggestion along with a number of other inputs, then come up with something better.

All writers are influenced by other authors they've read. They pick bits from here and there - bits of style, bits of vocabulary, bits of imagery - then they put them back together to create their own style.

Shakespeare was strongly influenced by ancient Greek theatre. Was that "cheating"?

For good authors, no.

For bad authors, yes. They're the ones who should be worried.

You’re arguing from the head. I’m arguing from the heart.

Which means you may have the stronger arguments, but I’ll always be right anyway😂

I'm arguing from the point of view of creative writing, which involves both the head and the heart.

Hence the advice: Murder your darlings.

So how are you going to top that?
