I mean …. Chat gpt?
Stop outsourcing your brain
How about stop wasting time on mundane details that would take a human hours but can be easily be done by an ai in seconds? Honestly your time is better spent elsewhere.
Getting a historical detail correct in your literature project isn't "wasting time on mundane details". Having arguments on the internet is tho
I don't trust current AI tech to actually process information and logic correctly. Just because it has figured out how many Rs are in "strawberry" doesn't mean it is always (or even mostly) correct
A magical thing you lose by relying on Chat GTP to help you even with basic research is the wild, unexpected tangents that drive whole new creative paths and ideas you never expected.
Sure you may be researching wood furnishings in 1200 Japan, but while delving into that world you may read an anecdote about a famous figure you never knew about like a 12th century Shogun, and next thing you know, your short story is now a sweeping epic set to the Genpei War in 1180.
(Like for example how I just learned about the Genpei War in 1180 because I was curious about people who lived in 12th century Japan to make a point here... this is what you lose by willfully adopting crutches.)
how do you know that's not where they started their research?
did genAI tell you to ask that?
