Tech people are always in denial when people hate their tech for good reasons.
Here another data point about how much people actually hate it.
Sriram "sri" Ramkrishna - 😼@karolherbst If you're letting AI write your blog posts then you're really demeaning yourself since it's not remotely you. It means you couldn't care enough to write something in your own voice and style that is unique to you. It's just a task to you.
@sri well... not sure I'd follow that argument 100%.
There are also ghostwriters, because some people just suck at writing and prefer if somebody else writes things for them.
And I think the issue with using an AI instead are elsewhere and more along the lines that it also impacts the writing style and how you present your claims and runs into the general issue of AI sycophancy.
@karolherbst Sure, if english is not your 1st language I can see it doing that but the beauty of language is that you can be precise - most LLMs generate text at below college level reading comprehension.
I know writing is hard. It takes me a long time to write something because I'm trying to make sure that I'm writing something that connects with people in a very specific voice. LLms can be good to get inspiration that I can modify. But I wouldn't use it wholesale.
SpaciousKarter78@sri @karolherbst It's also very easy to spot something written by a LLM. It just feels less human and the words feel more exaggerated. I don't read anything beyond the first 2 lines.
