would it be bad if i used ai to help critique me on my writing? (not like asking to fix it and use that but giving me constructive criticism on what i should improve on)

Are you really going to base your judgement of good and bad on the opinions of the autistic faggots that populate this board?
>>
>>24830145
Just train it to give actual criticism first

>>24830151
Better an autistic faggot than an AI.

As someone who has been doing that for over a year, I can tell you that it's unreliable
It will confidently give you a review/suggestions, but it can completely change its opinion if you ask follow up questions

Claude has been the most harsh
But now Copilot/chatGPT has a "real talk" mode which will be weirdly brutal, even to classics

Also, don't tell it it's your work
Say you're a book reviewer and you've been given an assignment to review and rate something

I have already integrated ai into my work flow, but not in the gay way most soi bois would, it helps me more philosophically than directly, replacing many older researching methods, but I wouldn't give two shuts about it's opinion. I also trained an LLM on classic literature and scientific and well replicated humanities research and philosophy.

No. Don't use it. It's just token prediction. There is no will or sense of beauty in it. It will corrupt your work and your soul.

what is this dance called?

Look at the quality of AI fiction. It's terrible.

i find it helpful for getting detailed feedback on my sentences: discussing word choices, grammar, punctuation, syntax, rhythm, voice. it will tell you completely opposing ideas, and will not do work for you, but if you use your own judgment it can really help you. i've ran my writing through tools detecting ai generated text and consistently receive 0%.

yes

It’s shit at it. Feed it prize winning prose and see what it tries to correct.

>>24830145
it's very bad, and fatal to your development, just like all uses of ai.

you become a better writer by rereading what you've written and trying to sense what you like, what's 'off', what surprises you, and then thinking about why.

if you don't yet have a strong sense of what you like and dislike in writing, then you fix that by reading other writers, not by fleeing to chatgpt.

but if writing is just a way for you to make income from commercial slop, and not a way to develop your experience of the world/your culture/your consciousness, then i guess i don't have any arguments against using ai.

>i find it helpful for getting detailed feedback on my sentences: discussing word choices, grammar, punctuation, syntax, rhythm, voice.
it's a million times better to learn about these things by studying writers you like, because then you actually know by experience why things like syntax and voice matter in the context of a story, how they actually feel.
>use your own judgment
your judgement will be meaningless because it won't be informed by the sorts of experiences i mentioned above.

>>24830145
It’d be bad if you’re a pushover who accepts all criticism without considering if the criticism is any good or not
