If you start writing today, there's no way to know if you can write without AI

I had a professor who said that writing is thinking. If you outsource writing to an AI, there’s no thought in it.
Using AI for any part of the writing process has a way of seeping into the rest of it, so I try to stay away from using it at all when writing.

  Your professor is right. There’s nothing wrong to use AI to aid the process _of thinking_. That’s actually really helpful, at least to me.
  You’re right about firewalling it in your mind. The moment it starts steering you into ideas that aren’t yours, the piece is screwed.
