Your intellectual fly is open

One of the best way to demonstrate your thinking and your humanity is to write. A lot of people are outsourcing the writing process to AI to score low-effort posts on social media.
We aren’t fooled. The writing is bad, yes, but more importantly it doesn’t have your voice.
At best, they will wrap your otherwise real content in constructs that cause people to skim or otherwise stop reading; at worst, they will cause people who see it for what it is to question your authenticity entirely.
This all reminds me of a lecture on youtube about “writing beyond college” that a professor gave. The core message being that people won’t just read something because you wrote it. Your writing has to have value to readers. If it’s a slop translation of your own thoughts or not even your own thoughts, it’s going to be of little value and no one is going to want to read that.
