+[[ultracomfy.net]] rarely uses AI for light touch-ups and writing guidance. Please read the section below for a description on how I employ AI in the writing process.
+My process of writing a page **always** consists of me sitting down for a few hours and writing the full length of a page. AI is never used to just write a page or even just a small section. The only tools used during the writing process are search engines for research/sources, and Google Translate to assist in writing the page in English, as my mother tongue is German. Once this is done, and only then, I rarely like to feed my text into generative AI to get feedback and writing guidance. This is to filter out obvious problems with the text and improve precision of my wording, therefore the prompt used is always **adversarial**: Instead of asking for feedback, I specifically ask it to tell me how I can improve the page. The most frequent results I get from that are style guidance, structure improvements and stubborn attempts of the AI to get me to stop repeating myself over and over again. Little does the AI know, I am more stubborn than it. Seriously, it tells me that every time. And I ignore it every time. It does help me with sharpening my critiques though and that is very valuable to me.
+Importantly, I try to avoid, as much as reasonably possible, to just let the AI rewrite my text. I always write my own text first, then I sometimes use AI to get directions and rewrite my text based on that, manually. Sometimes I take over individual words it suggests, and very rarely it spits out a whole suggested phrase that is so good (and hard to rewrite without making it worse) that I take the whole phrase. I **never** copypaste AI suggestions longer than a handful of words, and I **almost never** copy anything shorter than a handful of words. This website is an attempt to express my own thoughts and feelings, and I want to write these out in a way that makes me feel proud of the result. I cannot do that if part of the text is not my own work. At the same time, I see generative AI as a tool that has indeed given me useful advice in the past. So, I do use it, but I use it in a way that I can extract the useful guidance part without the AI encroaching on the actual work.
+This way, I can use AI in a way that feels ethically acceptable to me and leaves the maximum amount of humanity in my work. I do not pay for AI services and probably never will.
