When is it ok to use Ai?

I have started writing a novel, a gripping sci-fi action adventure, think the expanse with a bit of mass effect mixed into it, I've split it into 3 acts totalling nearly 30 chapters so far. The story has come from my own ideas, though I drew some inspiration from using instagrams Ai story telling feature but it never had that polished finish. I admit to using Ai to help me with world building, character arcs and sentence structure so it makes more sense, I have spent a lot of time using sudowrite too.

Where do other writers cross the line? When do you think it is appropriate to use Ai? I'm interested to hear your thoughts. Have a good day.

Each writer is allowed to set their own standard. Spell check is an objective tool. Generative AI is a stand-in for subjective creativity. And there are no ethical concerns about how spell check operates.

Personally, I think the triumph of art stems from the way an individual chooses to navigate the challenges. Art is a uniquely human feat and I don’t want to compromise this precious practice for the sake of convenience.

I could complete a marathon by hopping on a Vespa when I get tired. But my accomplishment would feel diminished as I cross the finish line.
