I feel you... For 30+ years of my life I prided myself for writing without typos and other mistakes (without autocorrect), using lots of bullet points, dashes, and words such as "delve into" or "underscore".
Now I find myself intentionally adding typos and other msitakes, and using less sophisticated language, just to not be accused of using AI.
On a side note, I thought a little bit about that concept. For me, recreating deceased loved one with AI would be reigniting the grief all over again. I would want to avoid that.
Maybe, just maybe, I would be able to use it, for example, to see my grandparents who died ~30 years ago, as a curiosity, but still I'm not sure if I'd want to.
That's weird, I have Windows 11 Home installed by the computer manufacturer but I don't recall having any ads. Is that because I disabled them at the start? (don't remember) or maybe because I have pihole in my network?
Anyway - no ads for me.
> What are use-cases for this that people will actually benefit from? Creative writing - sure. Brainstorming? Maybe for very vague and basic topics that don't need any business context. But more than that?
Looking at my Linkedin feed: lots of lazy people excited about possibility of "creating content" like "100 blog posts on a given topic in a minute". So, in short: seo spam. Lots of seo spam.
> Often people seem to be happy for other peoples children to do what they like but not theirs. To me this seems like the wrong attitude towards ones neighbours.
I think you miss the important concept, that people can have different world views and different things might be acceptable to them.
So I may not approve my kids/family/myself doing something, living some kind of lifestyle, but I accept that there are people who have different values and it's OK for me (as long as it doesn't infringe my freedom, of course).
> I couldn't care less for that chair or desk that the company offers. Work environment isn't about where I put my butt and my computer.
Lucky you :) Seems you didn't work on uncomfortable chair or on the kitchen table with kids running and screaming around.
For me such basic stuff is very high on the list of priorities regarding work environment.
> It’s honestly amazing that there’s basically no way to run software on your iPhone unless Apple approves of every aspect of it, including the name.
Frankly, I'm quite OK with that. Just today I was trying out some apps for tracking baby sleep/feeding/pooping (my wife expects to give birth in a week) and on iOS it was pretty nice and safe experience, with clean apps and my only concern was usability and features. I remembered my experience with Android, where I would have to rake through hundreds of fake/buggy/malicious apps.
Now I find myself intentionally adding typos and other msitakes, and using less sophisticated language, just to not be accused of using AI.
