To A.I. or not to A.I. that is the question!
And it’s a dilemma of sorts…
I’m currently writing a self-help book on tools for mental stability and developing the online course at the same time; and I LOVE using A.I. to create outlines and structures... suggestions for the basic structure of my work are plentiful and helpful, and I’ve learned a lot about it. It’s research for the writing and content to come.
But wow, the fine line between letting this seductive bot start giving me ideas in my own ‘voice’ – which isn’t my voice at all. Yesterday I said ‘yes please’ to a suggestion to write a chapter of content for me, just to see what would materialise. It was so predictably homogenised that it shook me.
We CANNOT lose our original, deep and passionate voices to this tool folks! It’s amazing to help create the form for the content, but the content has to come from our depth and experience and lived truths. If I think of every client I've had, and every session done - they will sing in some part of the work I’m doing, and it will come from toil and pain and shifts and transformation, and all those good things that have given my work life. And MY energy will resonate with people somewhere, somehow, when they read or do my stuff.
How do you feel about this? Drop me a comment if you have a view! I’m so interested in peoples’ perspectives on this!
