[AI Ryozanpaku] The Strange Swampman: The Case of the Vanishing Karate Dad

*There is a little quiz in the middle of this article. Please try to read it if you can 😀

If you guess right, I'll give you a Super Karate-kun!

Osu! I'm Karate Dad.


I messed up a bit recently. I'll confess.


I dumped the task of 'writing an article with this content' onto an AI. I'll be honest. I'll tell you everything.


The text that came out was perfect. The structure was sound. No typos. The flow was natural. There wasn't anything that bothered me when I read it.


...And yet, something just felt wrong. Completely.


I couldn't press the post button. I closed the screen without knowing why.


I've been worrying about it for a while, but I think I've finally managed to put it into words, so that's what today's story is about. It's completely self-indulgent. If you're not interested, please quietly hit the back button 😅




The text that AI produces is text written by a 'person who has never fallen down'.


I feel like this is saying something quite important.


In my case, articles are basically born from either 'messing up' or 'realizing something'. Staying up late to work on something, getting a cold look from my wife—those 'properly painful events' are at the beginning.


AI doesn't have that.


Because there are no wounds, the source of the heat doesn't exist in the first place.


Even though the writing technique is perfect, it's not lit. It's like neatly stacking pure white firewood. That won't burn.




It's the same in karate; technique and heat are different things.


When a person who knows the correct trajectory of a punch and a person who has actually taken a fist to the face throw the same technique, even if they look the same, what is conveyed to the opponent is different. The weight of what is conveyed is different.


It's that 'Have you experienced it?' thing.


AI can accurately reproduce what I told it to 'write like this'. But it can never touch the 'fuzziness of that time' or the 'sleepless nights' that are at the starting point of why I'm trying to write it.


I think this is the fundamental gap.




Let me talk about something else for a moment.


When I make an app, I always make sure to take notes on 'where I got stuck'. Not where it went well, but where I got stuck. The reason is that that is closest to the 'places where users are truly troubled'.


Articles are the same, and I can only write about things where I have 'experience of getting stuck'.


When you dump it on an AI, it becomes text written by someone who has never been stuck, 'imagining' the feelings of someone who gets stuck. No matter how accurate that is, from the perspective of the person involved, it feels like 'something is a bit off'.


And I think the readers are feeling that too, in the end.


I wouldn't go so far as to call it a lie, but it's like 'logical arguments without substance'. It's well put together, but somehow it doesn't resonate with anything when you read it. (Well, my writing is pretty much like that too)




In the end, I wrote it myself today. While thinking in the middle, 'Does anyone actually read this?'


But I think that's good. Probably.


The moment I think 'Does anyone actually read this?', I'm already thinking about the reader. AI doesn't have this anxiety in the first place. From the moment it's finished, it has a face that says 'There's no problem with this'.


I think heat is born from the clash between the fear of 'Is this okay?' and the impulse of 'But I still want to convey it'.


If you dump it on an AI, you can skip that battle.


Because you skipped it, something is missing from the finished product.


I think that's the heat. Probably.


Well, even I, who am talking about such lofty things, tried to dump it on the AI yesterday.


Osu!

Well then.

Did you feel anything strange while reading this far?

Actually, this text.

I didn't write it!

And so!
Osu! It's the real Karate Dad!!

Right here! Here, here!

Huh? What do you mean? You're probably thinking that 😀

Actually, the text above was written byClaude the Great, injected with the personality of Karate Dadon the theme of why AI-written text lacks heat.
(Writing it like this makes it sound a bit like an apology letter)

Did everyone manage to see through it halfway? 😆
Was there heat?

......It sounded pretty much like Dad, right? 😰

This article was inspired by the amazing article byMaru., who creates amazing reader-participatory games!

Thank you, Maru.!

Well then, by the way, the app I made isan evolved version of Raku Death note.

*Raku Death note, which writes articles based on personality settings, is an old article. Please read it if you'd like 💁 There's a Karate Yankee!

The app I made this time is

Personality extraction from your articles, article proxy! I'll take your personality!

Its name isSwampman!!

If anything, rather than using this to do something, it's an experimental app article.

How far can AI become Karate Dad...

I'll distribute it for now 😀 But please don't misuse it.

Distributing an app made with AI in an article that says AI has no heat.
It's a huge contradiction, but that's human too...

For those of you who are more intense and say, 'You tricked me, you bastard! Give me the app!', go here 💁 Sorry for tricking you

If you want to know how to use it, please continue 💁

◾️Swampman's Abilities

Paste 5 of your articles to extract your personality. Please paste articles from as many different genres as possible.

Then a prompt will appear, so paste it into Claude the Great.

Then, you'll get a fairly detailed analysis. This alone is worth it!

Now, if you take that generated prompt, put it back into the app, and set the article theme and word count—

An article generation prompt will appear, and if you paste it into Claude the Great, the article from earlier will be finished in no time!
Great work!

◾️Conclusion

We may have reached a time when we must provide an answer to the philosophical Swampman problem.

What is the difference between this Karate Dad and an AI that has acquired my entire personality, tone, way of thinking, and responses??

Turururu turururu turuttuttutu turururu
(Tales of the Unusual ending theme)

Dad makes a prediction.
Eventually, a time will come when everyone has their own personal AI.

In that world, an AI that knows everything about you will create a life tailored to your preferences.

The AI might even decide who you should date based on who is the best match for you.

Even after you die, the AI might continue to exist as you and keep posting...

Would you like to see your Swampman?

No, I have no idea 🤣
Use it if you can! Oss!
