Fascinating read!! I would love to hear your opinion on my latest article, tackling the idea of AI taking our jobs….

Interesting! I read it just now. I've frequently heard of those ideas, but really haven't had them read out. Sharing profits more evenly, even while tech owners maintain rights over the AI, is an interesting route. What do you think is the most likely thing to happen?

Fascinating write up. It gives you a bird's eye view of writing, and how there is a much variety in writing as there is in visual art, and how some writers live and work in multiple slices of writing.

It reminds me of writing pulp fiction. It had to be written fast because there was a hungry market for it, but it was designed to entertain people who had king train rides to work in a big city, so it was made in two different slices of the writing world that combined to create an industry.

That's interesting! I never knew that's where pulp fiction originated from. But that's certainly the case, writing is as much tool as it is a process. It's used to meet different needs.

And I think when you allow yourself to become aware of these differences and be okay with understanding that you can inhabit more than one slice of writing disciplines.

James, great article. Have you come across a definitive guide or book on how to use AI in our writing? I would also be interested in the opinions of our most successful, contemporary writers in terms of how they incorporate AI in their writing. Or, why they ignore AI. Terry

Great idea about success modern writers and AI!! Most I know, like Nicholas Cole, Dickie Bush, Dan Koe, Daniel Priestley, are for it. I'm sure there are others with diverse opinions about that as well. I've been meaning to write about something like that, I'll be sure to put that in the pipeline.

As for books on AI writing, I don't think I've come across any. I am, however, thinking of writing that in the near future.

What aspects of AI in writing are you having the most trouble with? I might be able to point you to the right direction.

Not really having trouble with it. Have used it in business and want to incorporate into my writing without jeopardizing original thought and creativity. Thanks for the response. Sounds like a good book/article idea.

Yeah, that's definitely a great book idea! I'll create something along those lines one of these days.
