@benjamineskola@hachyderm.io @zoy@merveilles.town wow that's some interesting tense work. 'was already' sounds like 'is' right up until you jam in the 'if' that begs the question i was posing.
writing is open to anyone but writing *accessibly to others* is difficult. I love the idea that we should all tolerate unconventional writing right up until I remember that *readers also need to be able to understand it.*
I am pretty fucking sure my toot made it clear I'm not pro-LLM and even laid out the bases for a socialist critique of them so maybe stop putting words in my mouth.

@onekind@beige.party You did, indeed, say "it's one of the very few good things about LLMs", not that LLMs as a whole are good. But I disagree: it's not a good thing about LLMs. It's the opposite of a solution to the problem; it makes the problem worse. Even if LLMs aided communication, they do so at the cost of increased dependency on US tech corporations (or, at best, non-US tech corporations). And I don't agree even that they do aid communication. Inserting a text generator in between a writer and a reader is the opposite of communication. (And I didn't put words in your mouth.)
