AI doesn’t belong in the newspaper

In July 2023. I deleted the day app for journalists from my phone and laptop. It was perhaps the best thing I’ve done as a lifelong dianion.

The decision is an answer by Apple announcing its app for the magazine at VVDC that year. In that volume, Apple said to use “learning a machine for the device” to provide learning based on content on your iPhone – stuff like contacts, photos, music, exercise, podcasts and location data. The idea gave me ICK. Mostly because the application is described as a RIF on the framework of the photo of the application, which at that time was “intelligently” transmitted a photo of the open suitcase of my mother.

I secretly had Flashback last week when I saw demo google to pick up my new Magazine Application. Except that Google’s application magazine strengthens harder in AI from Apple version ever. In addition to the class and power instructions, the AI ​​will also provide summaries of your entries. There is also a small calendar view that little emoji allows your mood based on what you entered that day.

On my Demo, Google told me that the idea was to make a living room light – Much in the way nearby the simplifies other writing tasks, such as emails and summaries of documents. Sometimes I was told, it’s hard to know what a magazine you need. The look can also be difficult. The twin point in this case was to make life a little more suitable and useful.

That’s nice, except that the journalist should not be easy or convenient.

Ask any writer: The Blace Site should fight. And in the diary, the only query you ever need is “What happened today and how can I feel about it?”

It is a deceptive simple question. Some days it is obviously obviously what you should write about. Great tragedy, a joyful opportunity, an event that you look forward to – everything you honestly appears strong emotion is obvious quick. But most days not happen at all, forcing you to spill through everyday minutes to find anything worth recording. That’s the point. Earthe resolution, brain exercise, collapse your vocabulary to find the right phrase for expressing your inner world. These are not things that should be easy.

The book is one quote Four thousand weeks: Mortic time management That is what it is. “It’s actually not a thought that counts, but the effort – which is to say, inconvenience. When you make a more convenient, drain it.”

I don’t always agree with the author Oliver Burkeman about this. I do not find any meaning in hard hand washing and I am mostly grateful with an extinct dishwasher. But, as it refers to a large technical trace that is constantly simplifying writing with AI, I fully agree that it is struggle is what the process makes it worth everything.

Reminds me of google’s much reduced gemini ad in which father uses AI to write perfect The letter of the fan of the Olympic Sydney McLaughlin-Levone and ends with a glossary excellent exception. It also has that Google forgot that the effort of writing letters, to be put there, is what fans cheer the letters authentic and meaningful.

I found it worth it to make the game “awkward” as “awkward”. After I deleted my day, I returned to the writing in a physical journal, and it dramatically improved my mental health, critical thinking, time and memory management. Multiple studies They showed that the manuscript was better for retention and learning of memory compared to typing. A lot is for It’s awkward. CROATIA Move you faster when you write a pen, the ink is hard to delete, and in my case my brain thinks faster than my hand can move me. These restrictions force me to prioritize the information should be recorded and sitting with my thoughts in a more intentional way. That means when I want to look back I have to remember when Things happened just because there’s no search bar. Prohibition of accessibility reasons (in this case, voice dictators can be a good alternative), I would claim to be interested in journalists to be an analogous.

The next analog also enables you to privacy. Journalism often does not apply to the little things in life. (Although no one prevents you from writing to that bubble tea in life that you had with the handle.) A lot of people will catch yourself to catch great feelings. Rasunkidari, death, anxiety, ennui and practice of finding joy in life that is final, cruel and unjust. These are private things that meant someone’s eyes except the writer. It doesn’t matter that Google says the magazine application is fully on the device, locking and deleting – nothing connected to the Internet ever really really yours.

AI Summary with the relevant laying of your magazine entry is also basically wrong. You are allegedly To transfer entries, sifting through scattered sentences for nuggets meanings. You should remember the person you used to be and think about who you are now. It was supposed to be like finding a message in a bottle or $ 20 account in another pocket of coat. I doubt reading and summary of the magazine entries could ever give me the same feeling.

While I wrote this, I continually thought of the summer 2009. Fresh after my first real cardiac heart, I filled the whole paper magazine with colored pages, spots for stains and horrible The poetry that even the most emo tumblr girl would never admit to writing. When I couldn’t sleep or eat, I’d explode the album Adele 21 And write every little self-doubt, disgust, rejection, longing, anger, betray and sadness not everyone liked to last forever.

Six months after I filled the whole book, I sat down to read every page. It was definition of CRGER, but the window process made me finally see how I was lost in a relationship that started my course. It helped me forgive and move on. When I finished, I burned the book by an old cigarette lighter on the roof of my shitty apartment. Looking at the pages turn orange, then black, I never felt more freest in my young life. Deleting AI The app magazine will never feel like cathartic.
