Here’s the thing about spotting the horrendous, soulless AI-generated writing infecting every corner of the internet now: it’s not just about the words — it’s about the patterns. And once you start noticing them, you can’t unsee them. The unnecessary em dashes. The polished transitions. The examples given in groups of three. The weird metaphors that kind of make sense but kind of don’t — like a parachute opening inside a submarine. The load-bearing use of the term “load-bearing.” The random one sentence paragraphs. The way a bunch of bland gibberish is quietly reframed as a profound insight. The on-going and un-necessary hyphenation of every-day words that really don’t need it. The cliches. Read that again. Cliches. Louder for people in the back. Tons of cliches. That’s not a typo. Sit with that for a moment. And the biggest red flag? Asking yourself a question and answering it. Because honestly? No sentient human writes like this. And truthfully? If you can’t identify these red flags, you might not actually be sentient yourself. Because really? If this formatting doesn’t immediately strike you as awkward and artificial, it means you don’t read books. Ever. Seriously. But here’s where it gets interesting: It doesn’t. The point has been made but I’ll keep going. That’s what AI writing is all about. Let’s delve into real problem. It isn’t the technology. It’s the people using it because they’re too retarded to generate an original thought of their own. That’s not thoughtfulness. It’s intellectual laziness wearing digital makeup. It doesn’t make the internet more fun. It makes me want to throw my phone in the river and forsake all of humanity and live as a hermit in the woods for the rest of my life. Seriously this shit fills me with despair. I’m not kidding. And the distinction matters. Especially when you’re saying the distinction matters without actually drawing a distinction. But here’s what nobody tells you. When you ask a machine to manufacture your personality, you’re not just automating your writing. You’re quietly announcing that you’re a boring, insipid dork with nothing interesting to say. Let that sink in. The uncomfortable truth? AI didn’t turn these people into tedious midwits. It quietly revealed what they already were. And perhaps — just perhaps — that’s quietly the most important takeaway of all. But what do you think? Let's unpack this together in the comments. 👇
