In any case, I one-thousand-and-hundred-and-ten percent agree!
Why can’t this be the future of AI instead of AI overtaking our abilities to be creative, spontaneous, intellectually strong, determine to use our brains instead of relying on another?
Just the other day, I had a conversation with my friend and I had spent more than an hour arguing against ChatGPT and discussing why even if allowed, I’d never use it to do my rough drafts or polish them.
Forget ethics and rules. It’s boring and stupid to stifle your own creativity and skills by making a machine do it for you.
Now, you’ll ask me what about those who are using it as a research mechanism or a grammar tool or to do something you can’t but in execution of what you would have done to save time, for example, using a tool to cartoonify an image before you make some edits by hand with a drawing app as opposed to trying to draw an entire image from scratch that would’ve been based on that image?
Sure. Go ahead.
But it shouldn’t prevent you from learning to draw from scratch.
Just as using calculators shouldn’t be a crutch for simple problems like two plus two equals four or thirteen squared equals one-sixty-nine, using Grammarly shouldn’t stop you from paying attention to what mistakes you’re making and trying to fix them yourself next time or just not making them again.
And even if you don’t practice how to draw, you should be curious enough to learn how it works.
AI should be something we use, a tool. It shouldn’t be something that does things for us. If you’re using AI like you would a pen or a paintbrush, that’s fine; but if you’re using AI as you would another person’s brain, that’s not.
