How I feel about LLM (AI) writing
Summary
A personal meditation on AI-generated writing. The author argues that LLMs can produce writing, but the resulting prose is often heavy on rhetoric and low on substance, making it hard to distinguish from human writing at scale. The piece reflects on how communities once filtered AI content, notes patterns like em-dashes used by frontier models, and expresses a desire for authentic human prose while acknowledging the current reality of widespread AI-assisted publishing.
