(323 posts)First, you actively and passively use AI all the time. Mapping apps and grammar checkers are only two minor examples. Your news feed uses AI extensively to generate lists of articles you encounter online. Weather predictions anyone?
Second, Creatives will be fine. The chess world faced this in the '90s when Deep Blue consistently started beating chess masters. Today, chess is more popular than ever in the history of chess wirj more players, clubs and tournaments that include player vs player, ai-assisted human vs ai-assisted human, and human vs. AI.
I'm a retired managing news editor who still writes creatively and produces press material for local causes like festivals and civic groups. I am composing more original material than ever, using AI as an editor and sounding board. Sometimes I'll edit an ai-generated piece, but mostly it's my original compositions running through the crucible of editing. The real issue is how to disclose that ai-assist in the pieces humans publish.
For example, this is all my own words. No ai. If I used ai in this response, as an ethical writer, I would have a note or bibliographic language that discloses it.
Still, creativity may be changing, but it will be fine.
