.............How

 ... can you tell if writing is original or AI generated?

Syntax... that's syntax... 


I've been meaning to write about AI generated information for quite some time. Now, the reason for this is... how can any of us, colloquially speaking, of course,... tell what information on the internet is real, or fake? What I mean by real or fake is... was it written by a human that is capable of thought and action to relay information that is helpful and sincere?

As a writer, I need to ask myself... why do I write? For me, this is a very easy answer. I write, in personal journals, to clarify thoughts, determine relevancy of information for the application of knowledge to my own intellectual growth and the need to relay information on topics that I find necessary to cement truth in our sand- shifting world.

There are many reasons to relay information. If someone is trying to sell you something, the method of persuasion might be... a writ of relevancy on whatever they are trying to sell you. For instance, if trying to sell a health product, a person might attempt to write about many health topics ranging form exercise to food. If you can draw people in with snappy articles, you might get an audience... a repeat audience... which increases your chances that a person may start to trust your website enough to... some day... buy something.

My concern, these days, is that writers remain true to their own style in structure and content. What is the reason for this? Well, trust. If I can't trust anything that is written, how can I put any validity towards articles written?

Let me give you a simple cross reference example... let's say you're watching a movie in a language you don't understand. You can either believe that the transcript is accurate or... if you watch a movie with subtitles you do understand, one will quickly realize that subtitles are sometimes correct, sometimes not.

I believe many people use AI to polish their on- line articles so they sound... mmm, smarter or more current or more relevant.

Now, back to verification of writer authenticity... why is it important to trust your writing style instead of trusting AI? I believe the day is coming when people would rather read an article by someone they know is actually writing it instead of relying on a universal system, like a computer program, which is too widely used.

University papers are likely scrutinized to root out paid for writers. I mean, really, why go to school at all if you're just going to buy a paper someone else wrote?

There are some areas that remain highly sensitive to verification... historical record is one. Read the historical information of Biblical books and you will find that, over hundreds of years, consensus of authorship has been studied to determine which authors wrote each book. The reason for this is that it is more authentic to be able to place a person, in time, to a region, or a place or occupation and writings are matched to style for authorship verification.

So, next time you think about using AI... don't... and just write from your own practiced style. It might be appreciated for its authenticity,

Coming soon... food and ways to stretch your cooking abilities for a healthy lifestyle.

Time to Write

 


Possibly,... The Orchard Walk II
    "The frozen prairies thawed with the warm sun turning puddles into small glimpses of glass, the only assurance that the world would soon not look so dirty. This was to be the first spring rain. God had a way of cleaning up the grey of winter. Since moving to this faraway land life had been one uncomfortable change after another. All the idyllic ideas of a peaceful life in the country had been soundly thrashed by crime, violence, and a string of tragic events that were hard to explain in earthly terms.
    The words of a preacher rang in her ears as she thought about the loss of lives. Every loss was a change for someone, and not just small changes but very big changes indeed.
    Although no priest of white collar, confessions came anyway, to Simmy.
    The basic lesson seemed to be... anything we take from someone else, when maybe we shouldn't, causes loss to another. A illicit affair, sudden death, and then children would go through life without a father. To take what belongs to another, especially in relationship, is no small thing... especially not to God. Of this, Simmy was quite sure.
    Undoubtedly, the need to forgive touches every life."

Gardening

 



My sweet pea tree produced the most flowers this summer... I called it a tree because it grew into that shape.


The old with the new...

Spending Time




 


Writing, 
quilting,
gardening,
building a wooden outdoor shelter,
contemplating renovations,
interior,
kitchen, bathroom,
wondering who might visit this year.

Here we are


 Well, it's been about a year since this trip. Neither of us had been across the seas before... it took courage, prodding, and gobs of money. The best advice I can give is to determine, in advance, where the money should come from... and, of course, pay before you go. This will ease all the tensions of travel to pave the way for pure enjoyment.

What I would change for the future...

Be a bit more prepared to spend for sightseeing admission fees. If you've never been to a country you've long been awaiting a tour of... as the two of us in the photo,

 ...budget for these possibilities. 

We've had a year to talk about what we would have wanted to see if we would have had more time there. It's a long way to travel, from here to there, so plan well.

I chose a difficult photo to guess the location we went to...

where do you think this is?

New Everything

 ... almost. 

Truly, I was not imagining I would be doing more renovations. What have I learned about renovating? Do not invest in property without a reliable partner. 

Here's why. Unreliable partners steal. An unreliable partner will take your money, your time, your energies, your good will, your human spirit, your hope... and, if yet it could happen, a partner like this will try to take your faith as well.

Don't let that happen to you... it happened to me. Unresolved, I'm still waiting for remuneration... lots of work I did... I should get paid for it. I have receipts, of course, but I have not taken legal action... yet.

I don't enjoy fighting.

So, now my partner and I are legal and binding and there should be no more problems in the future. The room, pictured above, is a basic renovation I did... enjoying good nights' sleep now.
