You’re a strong writer. However, I’m glad that AI has removed the need to hire writers who are not so good. Editing their uninspired work and paying them upwards a dollar a word is upsetting.

So, thank you AI for not needing to hire them anymore. For example, if I need ghostwriting, I’ll interview the person, plug the transcript into ChatGPT, do some editing, and provide the person with a draft an hour later. I did this recently and the person was impressed with how good the draft was.

I think this is an example of AI weeding out people who are not inspired by their work. Find what inspires you and something you can love and the rest will take care of itself. AI can ghostwrite and take on “content writing” well but can’t write a post like you wrote here. Nor would you or anyone want it to.
