I Hate Love AI

December 28th, 2025

None of this was written with or by ai. And man it gets me fired up to think, an AI could have projectile vomited this piece in seconds.

Ouch. As a reader. And wanna be writer or someone who wants to share thoughts and ideas, it's painful to think.

I've had ideas on topics and blog posts but I've let my fear of an AI prompt kill those thoughts in seconds.

I hit myself with, who is going to search to find this if they can nudge an AI on the topic or question.

It's so painful, because I turn over in bed and research a massive topic in minutes. I go on a deep dive with plenty of supplemental oxygen simply by starting with a generic topic prompt and descending deeper without effort or a weighted vest.

I love having that power in my dry and needing that Christmas gifted lotion lotioned hands.

I didn't need to find or read a book hoping to find what I was looking for. I didn't need to speak with a kind soft spoken librarian or leave my condo.

I had an urge to explore a topic, and poof. Like Shaq of Shazam fame, I had broken the surface tension with a grain of a pebble.

I'm an extrovert. I love human interaction. I'm also a professional hobbyist. Just ask my wife or friends.

This past year I've gotten snagged by RC cars, motorcycles, electronics, coding, SAAS, boardgames, and even taming crows.

All these I entered through an idea that formed a prompt that grew into an interest soon becoming a hobby and costing exactly “$246” per year. According to some goofy study.

But I love art. Paintings, clay sculptures, audio dramas, custom painted fishing lures, hand forged knives, restored motorcycles, books, stories, and anything creative. I love it.

I hate how easy ai makes art.

It's dead art but on the thinnest of surfaces it makes people stop and stare. That's already too much time taken up by lifeless art.

I want my art human. I want that soul. I want to try to grasp why they made decisions in each piece.

Ai has me thinking, prompted into existence and hallucinated right out of interest.

I'm weak. I've used AI to make art. But I know it's not mine. It's for ideas or inspiring an idea of a story or visualizing a creative path.

I hate it. I love it.

I want it to do part of my job and other peoples' jobs as well.

Let us humans express ourselves. And take center stage. Ai shouldn't be taking creative jobs. You suck coca cola and your martian semis.

Half masted attempts.

I want it selfishly. But I'll never stop reading and consuming human art and literature like a glutton.
