Mostly not. I am a fan of the em-dash, which a lot of people now see as absolute evidence of LLM usage. I occasionally think about swapping it out if I’m desperate not to be mixed up with an LLM, but in principle, I don’t really care if someone thinks I used an LLM to help me write something or not.
I work with a lot of non-native English speakers (with English as a lingua franca) and I’m more than happy for them to use LLMs to help them phrase their thoughts in a way that I can understand more easily.
I also sometimes use LLMs myself for low-stakes stuff, tidying up sloppy notes, etc.
I think it’s a bit Ludditical to want people to always write every word themselves. Should they also hand write it using a quill pen and ink they made themselves from oak galls?
There are some types of writing (creative writing, writing to persuade, etc) where the writing itself benefits from being hand crafted, but most writing is just an imperfect way of sharing thoughts.
