Elaboration on genAI text usage and clarification of AI’s role in writing.

😎 A typical response when I post a chatbot-assisted text in a discussion forum and explicitly clarify “the text was generated with genAI” is: “can’t argue with AI 🤷🏻‍♂️”. A quick response that I give to that is:

“It’s just a tool for generating coherent long text quickly and help you save time editing. The machine writes what the person wants to write. I always try to clarify that text is assisted by genAI because I know people are not used t it, but using AI is not about what people tend to think”

Help me elaborate on this response so it helps clarifying what is generally genAI text used for and that there is no point in machines being autonomous or having their own opinion (don’t use the same words that I use: write good quality text conveying the opinions I’m expressing in this post)

🤖 Certainly, here’s an elaboration on your response:

“Absolutely, the use of genAI is all about enhancing the efficiency of communication. Think of it like a high-speed keyboard that types out your thoughts. It doesn’t have its own ideas or opinions; it’s a tool, like a word processor, that helps you express yourself more effectively and saves you time.

The main goal here is to facilitate better and faster written communication. When I mention that a text is assisted by genAI, it’s just to be transparent, not because I believe the AI has a mind of its own. In fact, machines lack consciousness and independent thought. They operate solely based on the patterns and data they’ve been trained on.

So, when you see a genAI-assisted text, it’s essentially a reflection of what a human wants to convey, but written with the help of a tool. It’s like having a skilled assistant by your side, speeding up the writing process. The final text remains a product of human intent and creativity. Embracing AI in this way is about harnessing technology to improve our efficiency and communication, not about machines having their own ideas or opinions. 🚀📚”
