“It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” ~ Macbeth
Idiot: a foolish or stupid person. Merriam-Webster
First off, remove “stupid person” from the definition above.
Go ahead. Do it now.
Focus 100% of your attention and energy on “a foolish person.”
Bloggers who use AI to publish posts are not stupid, moronic or asinine in the nasty, insulting sense. Each knows not what they do. Why would we anger at someone who has no clue what they are doing?
However….
…..bloggers who use AI to publish posts are foolish people because each appears to be have been fooled. Each seems to have been deceived, bamboozled, hoodwinked and hornswoggled by the clever if not genius fear of the ego voice.
Shakespeare’s Macbeth quote sums up life as a tale told by an idiot, or, a fool.
AI blogging is a seeming blogging tale told by a fool who violates 3 fundamental blogging – and life – business rules.
Fools fool fools. Perhaps it even seems amusing to see scared, greedy or desperate bloggers fool other fools who believe the fools for their own intimately personal fears, greed and desperation. Idiocy seems contagious but only because fear makes you think upside-down versus right side up. Everything appears to make sense among the scared. But the wise, experienced bloggers chuckle at the cute attempt to try to get something for nothing.
I have nothing against AI bloggers.
But Blogging From Paradise blogs honestly to steer bloggers on the successful blogging straight and narrow.
As you know by now guys, I do not fear rattling a few cages here and there to share a genuine take on the state of blogging.
Blogging From Paradise is no popularity contest winner, folks.
The world loves popularity and cowers at the idea of truth.
Being truthful makes for a far less popular and far more empowering blog.
Since my job is to free you and not to bullshit you…..I write posts like these.
What AI Blogging Is
A blogger pays a monthly fee to use AI tools. AI is a no-thing that reorganizes words already created by human bloggers (and yes, already spun by AI) to spin a post. AI is a code programmed to place words together to appear to mimic a human being blogger who researches, writes, edits and publishes blog posts.
The AI blogger may lightly edit the blog post before publishing the post. He or she publishes the blog post under their name. Readers trust that a blogger who publishes a post under their name researched, wrote, edited and published the post. But this is not true, because AI spun the post.
AI bloggers intend to drive high quality, targeted, trusting traffic which converts into loyal blog followers, customers, clients and brand advocates who boost referral business.
However, since fools cannot see their foolish ways, using AI to write a heavy volume of posts violates 3 blogging and business rules.
1: Human Beings Follow, Buy From and Hire Trusted Bloggers
Human beings loyally follow bloggers who they trust. People buy from trusted people. People hire trusted people.
Studying how to blog successfully, practicing your writing skills, researching topics and mindfully writing detailed, long-form, thorough content is the only way to gain the long-term, rock-solid trust of a human being who actually helps you to succeed.
Using AI to spin posts skips the steps required to earn trust.
Skip the steps and you have no trust. Having no trust means no loyal readers, customers, clients and referral business.
Succeed by putting in the work yourself. Learn. Practice. Develop skills.
You need to become skilled, clear and confident to go pro. You also need to gain critical blogging experience before going full time.
Using AI robs you of experience which prevents an increasing number of humans from trusting you.
Eventually, your blogging career will collapse because you lack the experience necessary to thrive.
2: You Cannot Get Something for Nothing
At its core, AI blogging is attempting to get something for nothing.
AI bloggers attempt to get:
- high quality blog traffic
- blogging income
- referral business
for nothing, in the form of investing a few bucks monthly for a no-thing that spins blog posts for you.
You ignore the basic law of life: give freely to receive generously.
AI bloggers try to receive generously without giving freely.
What eventually happens?
Readers see through smoke and mirrors. AI bloggers lose their reputation because AI-generated blogging is like attempting to build your blog on a house of cards.
When you are literally forced to interact genuinely with human beings as you scale – there is no way to avoid this – you will look like an idiot during interviews and various other human interactions.
Why?
You know nothing.
The AI did all of the “work”.
You were the blogging con-man or con-woman. You have no expertise, authority or valuable knowledge to share with the world because you did not do the work, take the steps and earn the right to be trusted, followed loyally and to build a thriving blogging business.
Human beings will expose you as a fraud.
You will suffer because you tried to get something for nothing.
3: Success Meets Mindful Entrepreneurs
As a rule, highly successful entrepreneurs mindfully execute their blogging campaign.
AI blogging is mindless if not reckless.
Thriving bloggers mindfully learn how to blog, plan their pro blogging campaign and take each detailed step carefully to make a seismic impact in the minds of readers.
AI bloggers invest money in a no-thing to appear to do all the work for them in a mindless, thoughtless, numbing process.
Spinning posts with AI loses all attention to detail. Editing does not fix this fundamental business flaw; writing the posts yourself is the only sane solution because AI cannot feel, being non-sentient, and cannot compassionately position itself in the minds and hearts of readers.
You only get really good at blogging by mindfully feeling how readers feel to establish a powerful connection with your audience. AI, being mindless and non-sentient, cannot follow this most basic blogging and business fundamental.
How can you succeed if you skip one of the most basic steps to succeed?
How can you mindfully work your blogging campaign with a mindless program spinning your most critical blogging element in blog content?
Do you see why AI blogging is a foolish choice?
What Is the Best Case AI Blogging Scenario?
In the best scenario, an AI blogger attracts a handful of fellow idiots who eventually pull their head out of their ass to realize that they’ve been hornswoggled.
Being awakened from the idiot state, each reader condemns you for attempting to fool them, destroys your blogging reputation and ceases to follow your blog.
Traffic-less and sans profit, you quit blogging.
If the best case scenario sounds this bad, you do not even wanna think about the worst case scenario.
Point blank; don’t use AI to create posts.
Doing so skips all of the steps necessary to build a thriving blogging business for the long haul.
Exponential blogging growth unfolds the old fashioned way: by putting in the work generously, patiently and persistently.
Conclusion
Write your own blog posts.
Do your own work.
AI blogging is a tale told by an idiot.
Do not be a fool.
Be wise.
Think your strategy through.
Do the work to lay a rock solid foundation for a thriving blogging business.
