That probably applies in most creative endeavors, but with writing, all of that self-criticism comes at the moment of publishing to the public. It takes humility to tap that last button. Generated text might create a expression of a painter's technique, but it's going to lack his own representation of how a brush feels in his hand. For me, that's the stuff that separates good writing from mediocre writing, which is what further drives my own curiosity. The passion & humility to share experience holds the highest value for me... but I'm a bit of a humanist, in general. 😅
