@OctaviaConAmore @obfusk Spoken words are magical enough, but writing them down is another level. I think it was Plato who complained that writing was going to be detrimental to our abilities to remember things. “Plato, through the character of Socrates in his dialogue "Phaedrus," argued that writing weakens memory and understanding, as it encourages reliance on external texts rather than internal knowledge.” -Wikipedia Substitute AI for writing—sound familiar?
