JUNE WRITER'S NIGHT
ChatGPT as a Tool for Writers: An Honest Conversat
6:00am-7:30pm, 1803 N. 7th Street, Grand Junction, CO 81501
In this era of rapidly developing artificial

intelligence, creatives across the world are sounding the alarm. Screenwriters, copywriters, journalists, poets, and novelists are all watching a familiar story unfold: a world that already undervalues their labor is racing to replace it with something cheaper, faster, and altogether less human. Like so many technological shifts before it, the ringing of the AI bell cannot be unrung. That leaves those of us doing the deeply human work of writing with a choice: resist or adapt. Yet, perhaps, there is a third path that will allow us to engage with this new technology critically and creatively. Join us for an honest, writer-centered conversation about ChatGPT as an instrument we may choose to use with care, to fine-tune our own unique vision, rather than as a replacement for the creative process. Together, let us explore what this technology can do: spark ideas, assist with structure, untangle messy drafts, and provide invaluable (if somewhat dubious) research assistance. And we’ll discuss just as candidly what ChatGPT and similar AI assistants cannot do: capture lived experience, create emotional truth, or tell your unique and authentic story. Held at The Art Center in Grand Junction.
