I have never used AI to write or edit my work. A fact that is evident in my mistakes and disjointed prose. Using AI to write is like using an e-bike to get in shape. It may take one from point A to point B but the exercise itself is useless. I will take that pledge
I agree with you entirely. The most I have used AI for with regard to writing is a light copyedit -- copy and pasting something in and asking, "Provide a thorough proofreading for grammar and a light copyedit that maintains the same tone and pacing but tightens it up a bit. Make a list of suggested changes." I usually end up integrating about half the suggested changes. If you are going to crusade on this topic -- and I hope you are; it's a worthy one -- I have written a guide to the tech behind LLMs suitable for non-techies that you may find helpful. https://hollymathnerd.substack.com/p/how-to-think-about-chatgpt
Thank you for caring about your craft and for having integrity, Cameron.
