Virginia Chachati

Do you smell that?
Close your eyes and deep inhale through your nose: Snifffffffff

Ah yes, that’s the smell of everyone coming back to their senses!

I avoided AI since it came out because I theorised that, well, if everyone is using it, all our writing will read the same. And people can smell it from a mile away. They won’t even look at it anymore.

*SCROLL*

When AI came out, it was like everyone wanted to be the best flavour tomato ketchup, but they didn’t realise they are already ketchup, just slightly different in texture, maybe one is spicy, more salty, more vinegary, more sweet, thicker, more watery etc.

Eventually you get sick of the ketchup. Everything starts to smell and taste the same.

And now readers are looking for stuff that doesn’t even have a semblance of ketchup.

Unfortunately for the AI billionaires who want to dull our senses (and our brains), humans are smart and get bored easily (this is why trends and fads die).

And hilariously their original data banks are running dry (just like all the water they are using to run their servers).

Cannibalisation of data came sooner than they thought (this is when AI starts to cite itself).

Humans love what’s novel, and feeds their curiosity.

We strive for progress in ourselves and in the world.

And when it comes to medical writing, ketchup in different flavours just doesn’t work.

This year, I want to welcome back original human writers.

I see you, come into the light 🙂

This post is not to say that AI is useless. It’s helpful for summarising (but check it is accurate) or creating processes to automate things or initial research (but we still need to critically question it and read original sources).
