Something like "Write an intro blog paragraph about someone changing their mind on AI." Honestly I did it because I was just staring into space and wanted to get the ball rolling. But I used very little of the paragraph.

Exactly. When I used to do stand-up I would write with a friend but after that I would (almost) never use their lines. I would be inspired to write more instead. To either surpass or at least match them.

And that's the silver lining of AI. Generating a crappy first draft that you can edit and refine. So much of the difficulty in writing comes from facing that blank page. If ChatGPT can get me over the hump by writing a first draft then I'm all for it.
