Week 1 Discussion

3. Which editing tools (rewrite, shorten, change tone, etc.) did you find most valuable, and why?

I like the ability to shorten, lengthen, change tone, and switch between different block types quickly. These features were really fast ways to switch up some writing and it generally did a decent job. It's a great feature when trying to rewrite and shorten text quickly. 

4. What challenges did you face when trying to get AI to produce the results you wanted?

This was the most interesting part of development for me during this practice were the little quirks and challenges that AI bring. This is where I see that it's very important to be careful and critical in the review of all AI-created content. 

• AI-generated images did NOT play well with generated text inside those images. When I was trying to create cover images, the AI consistently wanted to add text, but there were a lot of non-sensical words and misspellings to sift through. It took some crafting of the prompt to eliminate words (and it's even tougher if you WANT some small words). 
• The key points that I generated at the end of the rise block grabbed the main takeaways from the directions block (versus the main content), and when I quickly added the content to the section without careful enough proof-reading this was also used for the summary as well, leading to compounding errors upon errors. 
• Just because it's faster and generally does a decent job, don't become absentminded with it! REVIEW, REVIEW, REVIEW!
