Your AI Article Is Well-Written — And Completely Empty

Lately, I’ve been seeing far too many content-farm posts.

They don’t just waste readers’ time — they also consume the limited attention resources across social platforms. In the end, I even found myself unfollowing a few friends.

It reminded me of a blog post I wrote earlier: “AI Can Help Me Write, But It Can’t Help Me Live”.

I know many people now use AI to assist with writing, and there’s nothing inherently wrong with that. I use AI myself — quite extensively, in fact.

But the issue is this:

If all you do is input a few keywords and let AI generate a long article, why should anyone spend time reading your content?

If I want information, I can go to credible sources.

If I want perspectives, I can read work written by people with real experience, thought, and research.

So why would I read a piece that is neatly structured and well-written, yet hollow and devoid of any soul?

I have a friend who posts two or three AI-generated long-form articles almost every day.

They look complete, and the sentences flow well — but it’s obvious they’re not the result of her own thinking. Logically speaking, if someone can truly produce that kind of in-depth analysis, it would require significant research, along with personal experience, observation, and synthesis.

But those articles have none of that.

They merely look like articles.

I unfollowed her a long time ago.

Later, whenever other friends complained to me:

“Have you seen what she posted again? It’s so dull.”

I would only reply with one sentence:

UNFOLLOW HER!!!

This isn’t to say that you shouldn’t use AI to write.

Rather, I believe AI should help you organise your thoughts, strengthen your expression, and refine your structure — not replace your thinking, your living, or your ability to form perspectives.

If everyone uses the same method — throwing in a few keywords and producing content with identical tone, format, and emptiness — why should readers choose yours?

What truly deserves to be read isn’t how smoothly AI writes.

It’s whether the piece contains your perspective, your experience, your judgement, and traces of your life.

AI can help me write.

But it cannot help me live.

And if you haven’t truly lived, thought, or felt — if you simply post AI-generated text — then no matter how long the article is, it’s just another piece of roadside weed-level content farm writing.
