Episode 1378: Part 8 - AI and Authors

"Picture a man in charge of weapons for a medieval king. If he is scientific minded, he will try to improve his bows and arrows by working on different parts of the product. The searcher may be assigned to study the properties of feathers. He will try to improve the breed of birds, study feather selection, and storage, investigate whether they should be trimmed ½- or ¾-inch wide, and so on. This man will conduct what many call 'scientific research' for years. He may achieve many improvements, giving arrows better stability and accuracy; but what is the chance that such a man will ever invent a gun? If he should hear about one, the chances are he will do his best to point out how unstable and dangerous it is to carry a powder horn, how inaccurate the new guns are, and how many families depend for their livelihood on the chicken feather business." That extended quote is from the authors George Steele and Paul Kircher from their 1960 book - The Crisis We Face: Automation and the Cold War   Part I: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-1327-the-ai-proof-writers-soul/id1467760106?i=1000591082107   Part II: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-1338-ai-and-authors-part-ii/id1467760106?i=1000592019840   Part III: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-1345-ai-and-authors-part-iii/id1467760106?i=1000593401869   Part IV : https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-1352-ai-and-authors-part-4/id1467760106?i=1000594869988    Part V: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-1359-part-5-ai-and-authors/id1467760106?i=1000596219444   Part VI: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-1366-part-6-ai-and-authors/id1467760106?i=1000597375966   Part VII: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-1372-part-7-ai-and-authors/id1467760106?i=1000598417217   Seth Godin – The Coming Ubiquity: https://seths.blog/2023/01/the-coming-ubiquity/   Join the author conversation in Ink Authors: https://www.facebook.com/groups/inkauthors/   Learn more about YDWH and catch up on old episodes: www.yourdailywritinghabit.com    Learn more about me, “Christine Ink,” and how I support authors: https://christine-ink.com/   5 Things To Know Before Hiring a Book Coach: https://christine-ink.com/book-coaching-2/
