Unpopular opinion: you only hate chat gpt because it makes it harder to stack rank and discriminate against people.

So what everyone can write well now? great it’s a tool! Just like moving faster because you drive a car.

The good news is you’ll be easily able to hire for that writing job you need. The bad news is you won’t be able to discriminate against candidates who are not as good with the written word.

Also, an obsession with the written word is a tenant of white supremacy [salute emoji]

    That analogy is horseshit because gps and the death of cursive were both need based

    Generative ai / chat gpt for writing fiction has no need nor real purpose despite them desperately pinwheeling about jamming it everywhere possible.

      The only use I’ve had for writing cursive in 30 years has been to copy out an anti-cheating pledge on a standardized test, because some fucker thought cursive magically makes a pledge 300% more honest.

        yup, hence saying its death was need based.

        People don’t write cursive for the same reason that councils don’t put in new horse troughs.
