I will not read your article if you write it in the staccato-thought-leadership style people seem to think is so impactful (or at least LLMs think is so impactful).

Write full paragraphs, write with subtlety, write like you care at least a little for the human you’re trying to reach.

@maxwheeler The problem isn't writing with thought-leadership style.

The problem is writing without care for humans.

@jaredwhite Honestly I think that style is (mostly) incompatible with writing with care-for-humans in mind – it feels patronising and manipulative to me. Write with conviction and be persuasive, but don’t treat me like I need to be babysat through your argument.

@maxwheeler Oh I totally agree…I'd hoped my wink emoji signified I was making a joke (because LLMs are always doing this weird "the problem isn't X, it's Y" framing 😆)

@jaredwhite Oh, hah, sorry – raging too hard over here to pick up any subtlety today!
