Oh yeah. DON'T ever use 'AI' generated text. Use your imagination and experiences.
Learn all you can about how to write well; there are plenty of resources out there that help with that.
Write often and get feedback from people you trust.
Don't give up.

Books and Rights

Being able to read books is a RIGHT.

What we read is a CHOICE.

Limiting book choices is OPPRESSION.

The Cass scandal. How every country is slamming the @NHSEngland fix report that destroys trans healthcare, replacing it with conversion therapy. Except the US and UK. The latest to condemn it: Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Great read by Erin 👇⭐️❤️ www.erininthemorning.com/p/new-german...
New German, Swiss, And Austrian Guidelines Recommend Trans Youth Care, Slam Cass Review
The recommendations, released by the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany, come at a time when US politicians erroneously claim that Europe is "pulling back" on transgender care.

Generational Cycle Prevents Progress

Many times I have pondered how each generation seems to have a limit to their curiosity and growth.

As we age, we seem to reach a growth limit and just stop.

How do we ultimately overcome recurring themes of autocracy and self destruction, as a people?

Future of AI Ague

In my novel (in progress), AI autocracy is a main theme.

It is far enough in the future that humans have become used to AI in all aspects of life. AI is completely integrated.

Still, there is still the spark of humanity seeking thought independence. I wonder how it ends?

Back to Basics

In order to combat 'AI fatigue', I vow to avoid FB at least 2 out of all waking hours. No, make that 3. OK 4!

AI - A Human Experience

I have been paying attention to the phenomenon now generally referred to as AI most of my life.

It used to be 'how cool would that be'?

But lately I have come to see it as another way we, as individuals, cede creativity and critical thinking to something outside ourselves.

My class had a field trip to a hillside. We were told to find life. 5 points for a butterfly, 7 for a ladybug, etc.

I watched the other kids make find after find. I dug into the dirt and only found a spec of orange dust.

She said, 'you found a mite!' 20 points!

Moral: Everyone can contribute!
