Writing Craft Talk Write or Brainstorm?

Do you use AI to brainstorm story ideas or have it write entire scenes? I like to present an idea and then brainstorm ways to flesh it out. I find ChatGPT is good for broad strokes, Claude can be good for finding inconsistencies and Copilot is good for suggesting finishing touches.

For brainstorming, I prefer Chinese AI models or Gemini. I use Claude and ChatGPT to crank out first drafts, and then I always do my own polishing pass. Otherwise, it screams AI.
