I love AI. I use it all the time. I code with it. I brainstorm with it. I use it for research. I use it to learn. But I never write with it.

@MatthewBerman yeah exactly. Not only that. Either you have something to say or you don't.

@martin_casado Yes yes yes. I just enacted a no AI for writing rule on my newsletter. The problem is AI writing is derivative by definition and writing is the one thing you definitely want to be original.
