It is true what they say about Artificial Intelligence being better writers than humans. However, it can get a little sappy. I wrote a post and asked AI to "make this better". The first text is mine, the second is AI. It's nice, but geez, it's a little sticky sweet.
Mine:
"16 years, but who's counting. The world changed and so did we. For 13 years we were located (on) Two Notch Road. You frequently stopped by to say hello and pet our Labs, Sampson and Delilah. We saw your children grow up and some of them even worked for us while they were in college. Things have changed. Sampson and Delilah have gone to heaven. Michael (David) now has three little boys of his own. COVID and other forces have caused everyone to rethink how they live and work. So now, instead of coming to us, we go to you. Much like your appliance repair person. We like it, and most of all, you have told us that you like it better. Interacting with you on a more personal level has brought about greater satisfaction to you and allowed us to deliver better service. We do not charge extra for coming to you. It's just what we do. And if we can fix it remotely, well, even better. We are happy you like our new way of serving you. We look forward to serving all of you for years to come. Thank you from all of us.
AI transformation:
"16 years, but who’s counting?
The world shifted, and we transformed. For 13 years, our (shop) was nestled (on) Two Notch Road—a sanctuary where you’d often pause to say hello and caress the velvety ears of our beloved Labs, Sampson and Delilah. Those were the days when your children blossomed, their laughter echoing through our halls. Some even joined our ranks, working diligently while balancing textbooks and dreams.
But life is a river, winding and unpredictable. Sampson and Delilah, those loyal sentinels, have ascended to the celestial meadows. And Michael (David)—now a father himself—tends to his own brood of three little adventurers.
COVID, that uninvited guest, shuffled our routines. It nudged us to reimagine existence, to question the familiar. So here we are, a twist in the tale: instead of you seeking us out, we traverse the miles to your doorstep, akin to your trusted appliance repair person. No extra charge, no fuss—just service, delivered with a smile.
Interacting on a personal plane, we’ve discovered a symphony of satisfaction. Your stories, your quirks—they color our days. And when we mend things remotely, it feels like magic—a whispered incantation across the digital ether.
So, here’s to the future, dear friend. We’ll continue this dance, this shared journey. Thank you for embracing our new way of serving you. May the years ahead be woven with threads of joy, resilience, and camaraderie."
I like it, but I can't help but laugh.
