Welcome
readers, writers, authors, and bloggers!
We're
glad you're here! It's the First Wednesday of the month; when we
celebrate IWSG Day in the form of a
blog hop featuring members and guests of the Insecure Writer's Support Group. Founded by author Alex Cavanaugh (Thank you,
Captain!) and fostered by like-minded associates, IWSG is a comfortable place
to share views and literary news as we record our journeys. Check out the May newsletter here.
The awesome co-hosts for this month’s posting
of the IWSG are: Feather Stone, Kim Lajevardi, myself (diedre Knight), C. Lee McKenzie, and Sarah - The Faux
Fountain Pen!
Today’s
entirely optional question: Do you use AI in your writing and if so how?
Do you use it for your posts? Incorporate it into your stories? Use it for
research? Audio?
Is it
just me, or is absolutely everybody taking the leap to AI? Without ever having “walked” it first, I’m
just not at all sure what lies ahead; around the bend, under the bed… I won’t
soon forget thinking I was smarter than the average prisoner of the notorious
Coronavirus lockdown. It was just as embarrassing as the commercial (they
probably wrote for me) depicted, where I ask Siri how far is the nearest
hamburger joint, and she replies “Why? Where do you think you’re going?”
That’s
why (getting back to the question) even inadvertent toe-dips into AI leave my
heart racing, my senses honed for any bells
or sirens suggesting I’ll soon be nabbed for my latest Intellectual Property
Heist – when it wasn’t even my intention…exactly. Perhaps I just need to know
more about it.
While
we’re on the subject of perplexing things, what happens to all the stuff you
placed in the “Cloud” when your computer crashes? For instance, has anyone seen
a basket of Fairy Pickles floating around?
No, I
can’t say I’ve ever used AI intentionally—not for posts, letters, or works in progress. But I think I’d like to try it once.
Can’t
wait to come around and see what you all have to say on the subject!
Happy
writing ;-)
