Maria Diaz/ZDNETI only use AI for one purpose… research for writing fiction. On that front, AI has helped me quite a bit (especially when needing to quickly understand a concept that I didn't previously know about or even the entomology of a word). But that's it.However, when you're writing four to six books every year, research is a key component in the process. To that end, I've leaned heavily into Opera's Aria.
