A nuanced conversation about using AI to write prose? On X? Can't be x.com/thinkingshivers/status/2057580322779210098

Some takes:

- "Well written" and "AI Sounding" are orthogonal. AI edits can increase the former but definitely increase the latter. So the trade-off is between being more human and being more well-written.

- Choose the sentence you like best, regardless of whether it sounds AI. AI detectors are AI, so, paradoxically, if you edit based on AI detection, you're letting AI influence your writing.

- It took some time to label "It's not X, it's Y" as AI. So you may use AI edits today, thinking they don't sound AI, but that can change in the future.
