Writing was supposed to be a slow-burn craft, a ritual of depth, discipline, and reflection.

AI makes this easier, of course. The process is streamlined. Efficient. But at what cost?

In the fast-paced Web3 space, speed is king.
Writers are expected to churn out content at industrial scale.

The need to practice the craft,
To wrestle with form and voice,
Is quietly fading.
Creativity is being shoehorned into workflows.

Earlier this year, I created a Web3 writing curriculum.
But truthfully? I’ve shipped more content than I’ve studied.

My progress? Still in Track 1: Storytelling and Narrative Crafting.
(Out of 13 tracks. 🥵)

Maybe we’ll never return to that purist realm of the bygone eras.

When the soul was weaved into words,
Where words were sculpted, not streamlined.

Maybe the machine was always meant to take over.
Or am I being dramatic here? 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s not a good sign, for the health of the writer,
Or the soul of the craft.

But AI is here to stay. And it’s only getting better.
