Specific Evidence & Facts (AGREE)
• The "Predictive" Problem: AI does not think; it uses math to predict the next likely word
based on what humans have already written. This means it can only "remix" the past, never
create a truly original future.
• Cognitive Offloading: A 2024 study on "brain laziness" found that when people use AI for
creative tasks, their brains stop practicing "Divergent Thinking"—the ability to find multiple
unique solutions to a problem.
• The Writers' Strike: In 2023, thousands of Hollywood screenwriters went on strike, arguing
that AI-generated stories are "soulless" and that human writers are essential for meaningful
storytelling.
• Art Gallery Bans: Many major art competitions (like the Sony World Photography Awards)
have started banning AI entries because they believe true art requires a "human hand and
heart."
• The "Uncanny Valley": AI art often looks "too perfect." Humans connect with the small
mistakes and unique quirks in hand-drawn art or real writing. Without those mistakes, the work
feels cold and "robotic."
• The Death of the Journey: Creativity is a journey of struggle. If you just press a button, you
lose the pride, sweat, and "Eureka!" moment that makes a human feel like an author.

Specific Evidence & Facts (DISAGREE)
• The "Blank Page" Cure: 70% of writers suffer from "Writer's Block." AI can provide 10 fast
ideas to get a student started, allowing them to then spend their energy on the much harder
job of editing and improving those ideas.
• Iteration Speed: Architects use AI to generate 100 versions of a building in seconds. This
allows them to spend more time thinking about the beauty of the building rather than the math
of the walls.
• Stanford University Research: Professors at Stanford have found that "AI-Human
Collaboration" actually results in more creative work than a human working alone, because
the AI acts as a digital "brainstorming partner."
• The Camera Comparison: When the camera was invented, painters said it would "kill art."
Instead, it created the entire world of cinema and photography. Experts argue AI is just the
next "digital paintbrush."
• Empowerment: Think of a student who has a brilliant story in their head but struggles with
spelling or drawing. AI "levels the playing field," allowing their beautiful ideas to finally be seen
by the world.
• limitless Worlds: AI allows us to visualize things that were once impossible to see, inspiring
us to imagine even bigger things for our future.
