I don’t know if it’s only me, but when I see obvious AI slop in my document, in spite of my 17 prompts, it feels more disappointing than good old incompetence.
It is now my incompetence, but with diarrhea.
AI slop can go on and on, and it tries real hard to make sense. But by the end of it, it’s so exhausting to find its broken pieces and piece them together in a form that reads like me.
But it’s not me. It is a strange, not-me sounding document.
And I reach a point in this trip where I feel like it would be so much faster to write the document again by hand, than to fix it.
