The implication that rewriting GPT output makes one a professional writer … not sure we’re on the same page there. If you know how to use it for those results, great!

It’s not so much that it’s AI generated … it’s also AI influenced.
I know so many professional office workers who once wrote some of the most boring sometimes stupid emails because they didn’t know how to write or get their message across or constantly miscommunicated things because they worded things wrong … now all of a sudden they’ve become professional writers and all their emails look like auto generated messages.
I’m guessing that many writers also take the AI shortcut. They get a bunch of content generated from an AI than just rewrite it for themselves. Some content i see is lazily edited and some is heavily. But I get the feeling that just about everyone is using it because it’s an easy way to get a bunch of work done without having to think too much.

At work? Yeah I’m gonna use AI to write that email. I didn’t think or do anything more than the minimum required before, I’m not starting now. AI just makes it so that the same garbage I would sent before, now smells nice.
If you like writing as an art. Why would you have the machine do that for you? If you like thinking, you can do the thinking and let the machine do that for you.
All of these are different uses.

Just do the minimum.
No one wants to read a 10 paragraph AI generated treatise.
