Some people (like the author) are going to seriously overthink this at first, and then we'll get used to it.

- rpgwaiter 1y agoIdk why you’d want to get used to it. I’m very lucky to have a job that doesn’t mandate AI use, and as far as I can tell I haven’t been hit by any work AI emails. My social media bubble on Mastodon is extremely anti-AI, I pretty much never have to deal with slop. On the rare occasion I see some GPT garbage, I either block the sender, or if I know a human is involved I explain how insulting it is and let them know they’re one slop message away from blocked. Getting used to it is a surefire way to make your communication experience much worse.
- dotslashmain 1y agoI'm not referring to spam. I'm thinking about how AI-enabled email/messaging/writing actually makes communication clearer. Many people are not very good at expressing themselves in writing, either due to language barriers or simply lack of writing skills, but I've seen a noticeable difference in how some of these people are now able to communicate with me over email. They leverage the LLM as a function to transform their naturally-poor and hard-to-understand writing into a clear, comprehensible message with proper grammar that I can easily consume and immediately understand what they need. The fact that the message has been clearly transcribed by an LLM is completely okay with me.
