In this class, we're going to be turning an AI writing tool into our personal writer's craft scene partner!

Every writer experiences writer's block at some point. Even though we're passionate about our craft, the words don't always come easily. One of the ways that we can use AI as a useful tool (instead of fearing it replacing us!) is to ask it to help us with games/activities that can re-ignite the creative spark within ourselves.

We are going to be exploring 9 different 'games' that you can play with any AI writing tool, including the popular free ChatGPT platform. In each lesson, I will share with you the prompt that I've created to set up these games with the AI, and then demonstrate in real time the kind of results you can expect to get.

I'm your instructor, Rebecca Wilson, and I've been working with AI and machine learning technology since approximately 2015. I'm also a writer and artist and feel strongly that we have to learn to live alongside the technology that might challenge our industries rather than fear it. I've developed this course as a way to demonstrate how writers might use AI tools as an assistant in a productive way. Using these prompts and activities, we can get the AI to help us become better writers and rely on our personal writing strengths rather than outsourcing the whole joyful task of creation out to a machine.

I hope you enjoy these games and please feel free to ask any questions or leave suggestions/tips in the class discussion!
