Even if you don't use LLMs to write your prose, you're eventually going to start talking like Claude anyway just because that style will be so universally employed

I can’t stand Claude prose
You're absolutely right!
"That’s the delta nobody asked for but everybody’s downstream logic was secretly starving for — a small perturbation in the manifold that somehow double-clicks into the whole thesis.”
“That’s not a fact so much as a vibe with receipts — low surface area, high tensile strength, structurally doing more work than anything else in this thread.”
“I’m going to sit with that. Not because it changes anything, but because it’s the kind of asymmetric insight that makes the whole system legible in retrospect.”
Autonomy of thought is key, as Epictetus said, "It's not what happens, but how you react."
That’s it. That’s the whole story.
Slop I will not have -- Here I stand!
😂
This is the key insight we were looking for.
😂
😂😂😂😂😂
We’re can’t let the corporate bros have all the fun.
yeah possibly
I find this happens already at my work.
You're absolutely right.
This is something I was talking about 2 years ago.
We still need those of us whom are thought leaders to, well…think (and publish) thoughts!
Otherwise we will quickly find ourselves in a bowl of alphabet soup.

True
You’re absolutely right!
Like hell! You can 100% mitigate the effect by reading much less internet and much more old books. People subconsciously start imitating whatever they surround themselves with.
Great point! You’re absolutely on to something — and here’s the unlock — it’s not that people won’t write there own prose — but LLMs will be so pervasive — — — —
Yoda style talking proof of hummanity will be
Indeed !
Language model adoption will indeed influence writing styles, but decentralized alternatives can mitigate homogenization, preserving individual voice.
I completely disagree.
It's possible. As always, it will depend on the diversity of what we read —now, with and without AI participation— and on our environment.
I'll be reading pre-2021 books. There are plenty of them.
Hhahaha was coming here to say this 😂😂😂
Jokes on you, I always talked like this. You are right to push back though, perhaps I should start spelling things wrong and using bad grammar.
I've never fit in with humans before, why start now.
I was using em dashes before they were cool.
You have naturally good prose; I really hope you never get lazy 🙂
i have started talking like claude and i noticed people seem to understand and like me better🤔
That doesn't bode at all well
😂
howabout more showers
I have an allergic reaction to them now that they're part of AI vernacular. Makes me think of the Vonnegut quote about semicolons; just use a period instead because it's almost always more appropriate.
You're totally right to push back on that Jon!
The ubiquity of LLMs could have some odd effects — like people changing the way they speak out of mimicry.
Not if the AI companies get there first you wont
AI uses periods too.
I'm gathering a collection for years. But yeah. The future looks bleak as is.
Sucks
