>I had someone write me a personal message about a sensitive topic that was clearly workshopped with AI in an effort to nuance the conversation and not offend me. But the message became impersonal, dispassionate, and disjointed. It had all of the parts, but it didn’t make sense as a whole. I wasn’t interested in reading it, or responding. I would much rather someone be themselves and write with their own voice, or with some passion, even if they can’t quite find the words, or risk offending me.

Only a privileged person can say this. Not everybody is a native speaker or good communicator. As an IT guy somewhere on the spectrum, I have damaged my career on multiple occasions by clumsy writing.
