Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

If you're a good writer, don't let your skills atrophy while everyone's distracted by AI, and start now setting up a brand or platform to offer your services, whether they be writing, editing, research, etc.
After the AI bubble bursts and there's still intellectual work to be done, you'll be well-positioned to charge up the ass.
A good writer will be figuring out how to leverage this tech for themselves and make their own work more efficient and productive. Just like all the programmers are doing right now. AI is not going away. That is not an option. That's like hoping the Internet "fad" goes away. Either prepare for it, or not and suffer for it, that's the choice everybody is facing right now. Your colleagues are not going to not use a competitive advantage just because you won't.
Good writers (good anythings, really) focus on honing their craft and tackling new challenges, not trying to figure out how to use a specific technology to do things they already know how to do, for the sole purpose of using that technology.
Let me address this to everyone. If the person you're hiring is asking themselves, "How can I use AI to . . ?" and not "Would AI even help me to . . . ?" then they're wasting your time and money.
What an interesting and extremely limiting perspective. I'm not a in the writing industry, I'll do my best.
Two writers write the same article, beginning at the same time. One uses a quill, ink and blotting paper. The other, vi. Is the one using a PC less of a writer for using the tool to make it easier?
The pc crashes so they end up finishing the article at the same time anyway.
The handwritten one is then delivered to an editing teams intray. The pc one, is thrown to an AI for preliminary editing, and instantly the writer checks/corrects edits. Repeat as necessary and submit for approval.
There is room for AI in writing, but I think writing by only humans will be more diverse and therefore enjoyable.
e: somehow dragged a line to the wrong place.. Need an editor :p
