Your AI Use Is Breaking My Brain

AI writing is impossible to avoid, is making everything sound the same, and is driving us crazy.

@dangillmor honestly, I think that the LLM boom shows how people today write mostly meaningless crap that no one really wants to make. Web sites that now post AI generated content are all the sites that never cared about the quality of their content, but about the search rankings of their texts and working processes that are being replaced by AI, like fr, are the positions that no one ever wanted take.

I think I'll have to reread "bullshit jobs" and some of the absurdist philosophers.
