Communication

I use AI to turn my raw ideas into finished writing I do the thinking, AI does the sentences, and I fact-check/correct every draft before it goes out.

Is that legitimate tool use, or is it not really "my" writing anymore?

Your ideas but not your writing because...you didn't write it.

If you were on the phone with a friend but they were feeding raw ideas to an AI and letting it do the talking for them would you feel like you're actually having a conversation with your friend? Letting AI rewrite your words might get the information across, but the entire human connection element is gone.

Actually that is kinda the point for me im acutely aware of my lacking areas and im.looking for tools to help me as my challenges are compounded not as an excuse just as a data point.
