I Didn’t Do It
I didn’t do it.
Seriously.
I wrote an article for a client.
They ran it through an AI Detector.
They told me it looks like AI wrote it.
Should I be insulted?
Or should I be proud?
Do I write so well that it looks like a bot wrote it?
Or do I write so badly that it looks like a bot wrote it?
The client didn’t clarify that point.
At any rate, I didn’t do it.
I did not use AI to write this piece.
AI does lots of wonderful things.
But it can’t write.
It overwrites, creating pieces that are terminally mansplained.
As an aside, I hate the word “mansplain.”
It’s sexist.
I am just as capable as any man of speaking in a condescending and patronizing tone.
*Note to self – invent a better word.
At any rate, I have tried to get AI to write a blog post for me.
Just to see if it could capture my voice.
For the record, it can’t capture my voice.
No matter which AI program I use or how many detailed prompts I give it, it just writes a terrible imitation of me.
So, no, Mr. Client, I did not use AI to write your article.
I didn’t do it.
