@rskurat@mastodon.social "need" is still a strong word. I've published over 130 papers, and have a h-index of 48, and I've never used one in writing a paper.

@jimbob@aus.social true - 'need' might be the case for the youngins. I can bang out a well-written 1000 words in about 40 minutes, in my own distinctive voice. AI can issue 1000-word blandly written boilerplate in 10 seconds. Our tech overlords think these are the same things. But don't get me started on my students inability to understand the basic content of a single page of text. In the long run our superior writing may not matter.
