Are these really my words?
If I ran them through a detector
would it say I am human or AI?
I told myself I would never get hooked.
That I would never get an account
so, I could continue to have that barrier
between me and it
so, I would stay human.
So my words, could stay human.
But have they?
I doubt myself now.
I doubt they what I write is good enough
and with no one else around to provide feedback,
I look to AI for guidance.
I use it as a sounding board, nothing more.
But then why am I watching myself copy and paste what it wrote?
I created another barrier.
I allowed myself to ask AI for help on essays,
but I forced myself to type out the words it gave me.
No copy and paste.
Just using my keyboard and my fingers
telling myself this shows it was human written,
but was it really?
I’m afraid of running it through a detector.
Maybe it will retain my words.
Maybe next time
it will say none of this is me
None of it is human
and I have turned into AI.
