Our approach to AI

Our anti-AI writing promise – if you don’t like any of the text on the website, it’s not AI’s fault, it’s entirely ours.

Yes, we could write it FAR more easily if we just plugged into the main frame and gave some prompts.

And yes, we’ve tried it and been startled by how almost good it is. It even spells things correctly too (as a pare of dyslecixs we can totaly appreciate that). It also defaults to using an '&' - which Edd absolutely hates, mainly becuase he can't write it. 

It's the almost good part. The content it churns out bores us – it's us, but on a bad day. It's just not as interesting, engaging or, frankly, odd (but then again, we are likely biased).

So, our promise is that we’ll still write the content to be a bit rubbishy, and it'll definitely be erratic (it’s June and we’ve only just thought to update from Christmas content). Because being bad, erratic, with a few gramatical errors still feels more ‘us’.

Frustratingly – we’ve always liked an ‘em’ dash – or whatever you call them (refer to the aforementioned dyslexia – we have no idea when you should or shouldn’t use them – we just think it breaks up text nicely). So if you spot them, it’s because we’re not willing to give this bit of punctuation up just to prove it’s not been written by a bot. 

This also applies to imagery - so you'll have to put up with our shit photography - it's all us, not generated by a bot.
