Today, my new walking friend told me that she was writing a book — with the Claude chatbot.

Needless to say, I was horrified.

She offered some examples of how Claude is asking her questions that is forcing her to think about what she's writing and expand on it. When I told her that Claude doesn't actually understand any of the discussion, she said she knows — but then offered me another example.

I don't know what to tell these people. They are so sold on AI systems.
