I dabble in writing, and I twitch when my Mac suggests text. It's not AI per se, it's just auto complete, but I refuse to use it. I don't want to disable the feature but I won't use it if I'm working prose — even if it knows exactly what I'm going to say next. I want to say every word is 100% mine.
