Nice to hear someone talk positive about AI. I also use it for enhancement of what I've written, but like you I also edit it to bring back my voice. To me it's a helper that gives me suggestions. Often I don't take them but they give me more ideas. I also like to ask them to give me suggestions to improve. Instead of rewriting, they gave me a list of things I might think about to make the article better. Nice to find your substack and your podcast. Great topic!
You should give it a try. Lately I've been impressed with how Gemini.Google.com can help. It's very much like working 1:1 with a writing coach or English professor. It tells you what's working and provides several ideas (not specific language, unless you request it) for ways to flesh something out or enhance what you already have.

I've had (what I consider to be) an engaging intro to a story in my mind for years, and I mean YEARS, but have never taken it beyond that.
