I can’t see myself using ChatGPT to write my blog posts because it removes the joy of writing. This blog is something I do for fun, I’m not so keen for the end result that I feel the need to skip the parts that come in between.
I write because I like the process of coming up with ideas, putting thoughts together, making links or references and drawing from personal experiences in a way the feel useful.
I like doing the final read before clicking publish which feels like a reward for my efforts. I like looking back on posts months or even years later and finding that they resonate in new ways.
I value those feelings too much to speed up the writing process with AI. I feel like AI is only useful for writing if the goal is to do things more productively and there is limited feeling in what you’re putting together.
On the other hand, perhaps I’m simply just too much of a romantic for the writing process.
