paulg equates "writing" with "writing for a public audience for exposure bucks".
He probably feels like writing inwardly for the purpose of thinking for yourself, e.g. in your own notes and notebooks, isn't really writing at all.
At least, I suspect he's kind of person who treats this kind of writing as nonsense. But writing for yourself, in your own shorthand, I think makes you faster and better at thinking than writing clearly for the public. Of course, using an LLM to write for yourself like this makes no sense.
Most writing for others isn't really writing to think. It's to please others and fit in and make sure people aren't mad because your one-word email reply ("no.") would be misinterpreted.
