ChatGPT Wrote Me a Story
I Must Return To Weekly Screeching/Crying About Writing
I must.
But first~! Someone said ChatGPT is free and you don't even have to sign up, so I fired it up and asked it to write a story based on the hook/concept of my upcoming novella (the hook is unique enough I can't tell you; you might find my books and either be scarred for life or slavishly devoted and I value your mental health just as much as mine). And I told myself, do not get upset. Whatever comes out... do not get upset.
I did not get upset but my blood pressure did briefly go up a tick, lol.

I have a lot of thoughts percolating right now (I generated the story AS I typed this post) and will have to revisit this later. But I have to say, having seen the output--and I might get some heat for this--I don't begrudge anyone wanting to use these tools, for whatever reason. It's not a learning tool, though. It's a shortcut tool. I think you could use this tool to make 50 stories and not necessarily learn what you'd learn writing a handful of stories on your own. But maybe you don't want to learn. Maybe you just want to make things and put them out there.
The volume of AI clogging up discovery right now is frustrating and sucks, but I'm not gonna moralize it. Things are changing as new tools are made available, and we must adapt. That's all.
