I am exhausted by the extent of AI sloppification of just all communication. Why does a LinkedIn comment need to be AI-fixed? Are we really penalizing all forms of personality in prose now? Come on

I think there's not nearly enough focus on how gen AI bots are replacing writing. I am sure we are all noticing how AI writing is percolating into homework assignments, journal articles and reviews. Most of it is shallow, dull and un-insightful.

Summertime appeal to the skincare world: sun block needs to come in much much bigger bottles than 50ml (1.7 oz)! This is a hot take. (get it 😅🫣)

Seeing the m-dash everywhere. In journal articles, reviews, tweets, reddit posts, new book... This can't be good.

We are truly in the end times of the Internet. I can't express how much libgen and another platform (rhymes with shybub) helped me back in India during (and beyond) my masters program.

I'm genuinely curious -- who is asking to interact with AI profiles on social media? Who is the intended audience?!!
