This makes me feel you are not being forthright, and you are trying to take us for fools. What's worse, you are trying to profit off it.
TFA you submitted today tries to hide it better, but there's no reason to be quoting Marcus Aurelius twice in one blog post until you realize they're affiliate links... which is like every link on your blog.
I'm not going to speak for everyone, but personally I'd prefer this style of content not be posted here.
For me, AI is sitll a time-saver, like other grammar tools, so I can focus on the message.
I had hoped people would focus more on the message than the craft and tools, but I understand now. Lesson learned, and I’ll keep working on it.
I'm listening to my audience and improving my writing as I chronicle my life experiences.
I don’t use AI to push sales. In fact, I shut down AdSense within minutes of approval because monetizing isn’t my goal right now. Yes, i use affiliate links to books I’ve personally found useful (and love quoting them) and hope others will too, but I’ve been debating removing those as well, the same way I did with ads, if it hurts the reader’s experience. I'm thinking the affiliates don't readers, but I may be wrong.
I’m new to this space and still learning how to be authentic online. This community is actually the only place I share my writing, and as you can see i'm stumbling a lot, but I’m listening, learning, and I genuinely appreciate everyone’s feedback, yours included.
Even the primary anecdote of the post simply doesn't seem realistic to me. Why would you ask an LLM whether a domain name idea is good or terrible? That's an entirely subjective opinion question with no right or wrong answer! And chatbots are widely known for being sycophantic anyway, so the response will just depend on how the question was framed.
OP, if you're actually writing this stuff entirely by hand, you've internalized AI writing style to a disturbing degree.
