Observations on Writing with AI

The article explores the challenge of using AI for creative writing, particularly the difficulty of achieving a consistent, authentic voice.

The author, with 16 years of writing experience, has tested over 10 AI systems and fine-tuned models to mimic their own voice, but finds that each AI has a distinct personality—Gemini beams sunshine, Claude is languid but sharp, and OpenAI Codex is dispassionate.

This makes writing in another voice hard for both humans and AI, and using a single model for creative work often fails to produce satisfactory results.
