Creators want to create.
Artists want to express.

There’s a massive difference between bringing in tools that make your work easier, and handing over the reins to those tools so they do it for you. One frees you to create more, faster, better. The other kills your voice, your craft, your credibility.

Authenticity isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s the whole damn point.

Your readers aren’t a faceless algorithm. They want real. They want you. They will not connect with some AI-generated copy that sounds like every other bland piece of content floating around the internet. Funny thing… this is what bots want too: EEAT anyone?

Just because you can shove a frozen pepperoni pizza in the oven doesn’t mean you cooked. It means you took a shortcut, cheated yourself out of learning the process, and served up something soulless.

And no, it doesn’t matter if it looks good or tastes decent. It lacks the flavor of effort, care, and you.

AI tools like GPT are the grocery store, the food processor, and the oven that holds steady at the perfect temperature. They’re conveniences that level the playing field. They should let you focus on the creative parts that machines can’t touch: the ideas, the voice, the storytelling.

They make the impossible approachable. But they don’t replace the chef.

If you treat AI like a frozen pizza – grab it, nuke it, serve it – you’re doomed to a bland experience. It might look the part, but it’s hollow, forgettable, and regretful.

Here’s the bottom line: Crap in, crap out.

Even if the AI seems like magic, it’s still only as good as the input and guidance you give it.

The risk is real: lean too hard on AI to do your thinking and writing, and you lose your edge. Your voice becomes a ghost of your own making.

If you want your content to resonate, to move people, to build a brand that lasts, then you have to invest time and effort. You must own your content. Own your process. Your flaws, your quirks, your bold opinions… those are the secret sauce that simply relying on AI can’t replicate.

Those who take the time to partner with AI, to craft, tweak, and own their content, will be rewarded. Their work will feel alive because it is.

Everyone else who reaches for the frozen pizza shortcut? They’re left with a plate full of regret, bland words, and missed opportunities.

This isn’t just about creating better content. It’s about preserving the very thing that makes you valuable: your voice, your perspective, your human spark.

So, next time you sit down to create, remember:

You’re not here to be replaced. You’re here to be amplified.

Treat AI like the tool it is – the sous-chef, not the head chef.

Cook something worth eating.
