Dawnings
AI poison
By Nicholas Hooper
This poison is tempting
Use this and you can write more
Use this and you can save time
Use this and you can be brilliant
But it’s not you
It’s something else and it’s poison
It’s AI and it is not human
It has no soul
It can’t make new discoveries like you can
It won’t make the kind of mistakes that can lead to new ideas
It will take your creativity away from you and you will forget how to
So don’t drink this poison
Don’t use it
For in the end….
It will use YOU

About Dawnings:
“Every morning at around 5am I get up and go down to my studio. After a short meditation I write down whatever is in my head, giving myself fifteen minutes to do so. Then moving over to the piano (or a more portable instrument like my Ukulele when I'm away), I improvise and record a piece of music inspired by whatever words I just wrote. It is a great way of keeping both my writing and my composing going and I call these small creations Dawnings. They are mostly unedited, like sketches, so that they keep that fresh feeling of an early morning discovery.”
