Good stuff here, Helen. I really enjoyed reading this one. You're back, roaring again (lol). :)

Helen, there are other reasons for not using AI. . And they are crucially important to the human of humanity (which AI is absolutely NOT).

.

AI can never be truly creative nor imaginative, because only biological creatures (of which human beings are the outstanding example in these respects). . The reason is that (and I don't know many people who understand this) the human mind has direct access to the source of creativity itself: in scientific terms, that source is known as the integrated Field of Consciousness, aka 'god'.

.

If you are paying attention as you are doing your first draft (especially) you might realise that the words on the page (or other media) are not coming from you. . They seem to "write themselves".

Absolutely, consciousness is such a huge concept to grasp and a mystical entity to understand. Consciousness no doubt plays a very important role in human creativity, but we barely even know anything about how humans make art! Research-wise, consciousness has been a huge and hotly debated topic, so I addressed this piece from my personal experience. Thank you for the very thoughtful comment!
