I can't stand it. It's really not a nice reading experience.
Before AI we had better writers and worse writers, but it was always profoundly human. The voice is completely lost and everything reads as this garbled mess.

I like it for generating docs when I know they won’t be read, which is most presentations, vc docs, work docs, emails, etc. I used to write them carefully but no one read anything for decades now, at work (we have served many clients; 1000s over the decades), but they still demand the docs (‘send us all you have so we can prepare’ type of joke); AI is great for that really. Looks good and no one cares anyway.

I can't stand it either. I am usually quite optimistic about AI except when it comes to writing. My gloomy prediction is that soon kids will start talking like the way AI writes.

That is inevitable really… I hear my colleagues using these phrases already and I notice I automatically read past it myself online as I see it so often, I just filter it out without thinking.

I do think this could be better done, obviously. But I'm so here for a future where we spend more time looking at, drive-by-ing interesting open source projects.
