Ai Poetry Poem by Isadora Quagmire

Ai Poetry

Rating: 5.0

It is a sad thing, to see so many works,
Penned by technology, rather than the human mind,
These poems are flowery and have good rhymes yet lack a heart.
And as the days pass, more and more poems of this sort I find,
They are pieces, sadly, of heartless replicational art.

If only the authors who give the content to the AI
Would turn their brilliant ideas into poetry on their own,
Perhaps they are unable to rhyme, or maybe they honestly didn't try.
I feel sorry for them, as they go on publishing works that are not their own
For where is the joy in poetry, if it does not come out of one's heart totally?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
In the past couple of years, I have noticed that there are a lot of people who use AI to write their poems for them. When AI writes poetry it loses its heart and spirit—the words are very nice and rhyme amazingly—but the true beauty is missing—and most AI poems sound the same because the same author (AI) wrote all of them. I have come to recognize these poems especially because my brother was using an AI tool to help me restore scans of many of my childhood poems that I wrote with pens and pencils and are now nearly indecipherable. The AI would re-write what was lost as well as it could based on what it could read. I published some of those childhood poems here on PH and I have recently re-read many of them and found they sound awfully unlike me and much like AI. As such, I am working on republishing many of these re-written without the help of AI restoration for the sake of honoring God and the integrity of my poetry. What are your thoughts, friends, fellow poets/poetesses, concerning AI poetry? I pray that all of you are well! Take care, friends, may God bless you all!

I've only used AI once to write a poem out of curiosity. It was educational and I actually liked the poem. I never published it on PoemHunter or anywhere else. I asked AI if I could share it as my own and it said yes, think of me as your own personal ghost writer. Still it didn't feel like my own!

With AI everyone could be a poet and it is awful!

This is an amazing remark. AI poetry reduces your thinking capacity and makes you a useless poet.

Absolutely may poetry come from the heart of a humane mind! ... And sometimes I feel Christ Our Lord helps us to write what our heart is trying to say... Or maybe at times his will.

You sum up this issue so excellently Isadora! Thank you for sharing this with honesty, humility, and gentleness! I really do wish that AI poets would stop wasting thier time here on PH... like Tor Magnor Solvang to name the worst.

AI is the worst poet of our time! Not because his poems don't follow the rules--but because they do not come from a real heart. Poetry is, as it were, the crystalized tears of the soul! Love letters from one beating breast to another, and portraits painted on the imagination of every reader!
