Big Dawg is on the prowl for anyone who claims AI can replace human creativity. ๐Ÿถ

AI has its uses.
Human creativity isn't one of them.

Join us as we talk (bark?) about human creativity, the business and craft of writing, and how to be successful at both.

True or false?
๐Ÿ‘‰ "You will succeed as a writer to the degree you can meet deadlines without sacrificing quality. And doing it all with a smile.โ€

The greatest horror show on earth is carried out by vested interests who try to convince humans their creativity means nothing.

Your creativity means everything.

Happy (Pre)-Halloween, folks! ๐ŸŽƒ

Thank you so much to all of you!! ๐Ÿ™

Iโ€™m hard at work creating some long form videos on how to actually make money as a writer, including interviews with several full-time writers whoโ€™ve made a living as writers for years.

Next target is: 10,000.

An artist friend posted on FB that sheโ€™d written an article about something personal.

She represented the article as her views on an important topic.

She isnโ€™t a writer.

And I was eager to read her personal take.

I clicked enthusiastically.

And saw the ChatGPTesque nature of the article immediately.

I felt cheated.

I was SO disappointed.

I didnโ€™t give a shit if her writing was โ€œpoorโ€โ€”I wanted HER views. I wanted to know HER experiences.

Some of the best books Iโ€™ve read were grammatical and structural โ€œfailures.โ€

Yet, I LOVED them.

Writing isnโ€™t about connecting dots.

Itโ€™s about conveying human EMOTION.

Itโ€™s about MOVING people.

Over-reliance on AI and ChatGPT for writing opens the door to us forgetting that writing is about conveying HUMAN ideas.

Every great movement on earth began with the written or spoken word.

ChatGPT and AI content is dull and insipid.

ChatGPT and other LLMs were trained on content created for another robot โ€” Googlebot.

โ€œSEOโ€ content is some of the worst writing Iโ€™ve ever read (or been paid to write ๐Ÿ˜‚).

ChatGPT was trained on this drivel and now spews out even worse drivel that collectively suppresses the overall quality of human communication.

However: This mess also represents a massive opportunity.

The opportunity is this:

Itโ€™s never been more important for HUMANS to create and to THINK.

While the quality of writing collectively goes down because of AI, you have the opportunity to increase your writing quality so high that the difference becomes impossible to ignore.

Weโ€™re already seeing the โ€œsame old same oldโ€ crap across websites, written by AI, โ€œbang me over the head for some excitement because this shit is so boring.โ€

Who reads that crap?

Not me.

Businesses are dreaming when they think their target market is too stupid to recognize that the business was too lazy to (a) THINK an original thought and (b) get a human to write it down.

What an opportunity to write beautifully prose!

AI is not a threat to artists.

Itโ€™s an opportunity.

Donโ€™t buy the hype.

STAY THE COURSE.

Focus on your HUMAN art and skills because these skills will become SCARCE and thus increase in VALUE.
