The Role of AI in Writing: A Personal Journey

Hello, My Outside the Box Readers!

In this edition, I want to share a personal journey that led me to embrace AI, specifically ChatGPT, in my writing process. This is a topic that's particularly important to me, as I believe it can help others, especially dyslexic thinkers, who might be hesitant to use these tools due to misconceptions.

My Struggle with Typing

My struggle with typing dates back to my senior year in high school when computers were first introduced into classrooms. Despite being a competitive person in all aspects of life - sports, academics - I found myself unable to keep up with my peers in typing. I wasn't at the top of the class, nor was I in the middle. I was, in fact, at the very bottom.

To cope, I relied on my mom, sister, and wife to type for me. But it was crucial that they didn't change anything - the thoughts had to remain mine.

The Game Changer: AI Tools

The advent of voice-to-text technology and AI models like ChatGPT has been a game changer for me. These tools allow me to get my thoughts out and feel creative again. They keep my words intact, but rephrase them for better online delivery.

The biggest advantage has been overcoming the hurdle of typing, which slowed down my thinking and processing skills. The time it took to fix errors often deterred me from typing altogether.

The Real Role of AI in Writing

AI tools like ChatGPT are not the primary content creators, as some might believe. They are aids in the writing process. The content that you read is a result of a collaborative effort between the AI and myself. It's a blend of AI's capabilities and my creativity.

Encouraging Dyslexic Thinkers

For dyslexic thinkers, AI tools can be incredibly valuable. They can streamline the writing process, assist with spelling and grammar, and aid in organizing thoughts. I encourage all dyslexic thinkers to explore these tools and see how they can enhance their writing process.

Final Thoughts

I hope this personal insight into my journey with AI in writing helps to clarify any misconceptions. My primary concern is that those who can benefit from these tools, especially dyslexic thinkers, understand their value and know that they're available for use.

As always, I appreciate your continued support and look forward to bringing you more content in the future editions.

Happy Sunday,

Matt Ivey
