Importance of Writing

Writing is becoming increasingly automated and the web is littered with AI generated content. While I'm not opposed to reading a valuable blog post on some engineering topic, even if it's been written by AI, the truth is that most of this content (currently) is crap.

Using AI to assist your writing and help sculpt out a piece of work is fine, but most people don't use it this way. The internet is filled with slop websites that fail to inspire joy.

As AI generated content becomes the norm, I believe that human-generated content and raw thoughts and emotion will become more valuable. In many ways, I'd rather read a raw, unproduced, and scrappy blog post with grammatical mistakes over perfectly generated content that serves little value.
