I feel for the author. Until recently it used to be that writing was a way for humans to project their thought into time and space for anyone to witness, or even to have a conversation. Oh how I miss that dead art of having a good one.

It used to be that you knew where you stand with colleagues just from how they write and how they speak. Had this Slack memo been written by someone who just learned enough English to get their first job? Or had it been crafted with the skill and precision of your Creative Writing college professor's wet nightmare muse?

But now that's all been strangely devalued and put into question.

LLMs are having conversations with each other thanks to the effort of countless human beings in between.

God created men, Sam Colt (and Altman) made them equal.
