I have personally pondered and accepted the fact that anything I have to say, written or otherwise, is a result of others' work no matter how much I want to believe I have a truly unique perspective. I read a lot of blog articles, and it's truly rare that I don't recognize either borrowed words or concepts even though I enjoy reading the content.

I admit that AI generated writing is a little strange unedited. Putting that output into a writer's voice with personal experience is always going to help to humanize it and make it more readable.

But the reality is that AI is just the next phase of borrowing and rehashing of older materials and concepts--just like reading an encyclopedia or Wikipedia article and then putting those rehashed words into an essay.

My suggestion is that as long as you enjoy what you're reading or learning, it's probably not worth getting upset about provenance. Anything truly new and innovative can't come from AI anyway--and innovation is very rare.

There is nothing new under the sun.
