I was talking to an acquaintance recently who told me how he has AI agents write his articles for him. He sends a voice note of an idea, and every morning it picks the ideas, writes the drafts, sends them to him, he requests edits, and then it writes and publishes them. So I asked him: at what point do you feel uncomfortable putting your name on this? And he couldn't even see the issue.
He just thought AI was some amazing magic bullet that produced articles for him.
That's what I want to talk about this week — the lie that AI is a magic shortcut, that if you're not using it you're going to fall behind. And sure, AI can write stuff. So can my five-year-old. That doesn't mean it's going to be good.
Here's the truth: if you stop doing the craft, you will no longer be good at the craft. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen.
