    One reader says AI-written emails and posts can get you blocked

    A user questions using large language models to write for others, describing hostility that can extend to blocking an entire domain.

    TLDR

    A user counts themselves among readers hostile to emails, articles and posts written with large language models. They say that hostility can mean muting or blocking an author—or blocking a domain—to avoid reading anything from that source again.

    @tamarawinter“…to use an LLM to write is to void the social contract between writer and reader: we readers shouldn’t be expected to labor to understand a sentence that the writer themselves didn’t work to create.” 🎯
    @GergelyOroszWhat’s the problem w using LLMs to write stuff you want other people to read -emails, articles, posts- and why are people (like me!) so incredibly hostile that they will block you/mute you/block your domain, to never read anything from you again? Bryan spells it out. Read it:
    @sarthakgh“Does the revolt of the reader matter? If it needs to be said, when you are using an LLM to author a public piece, you are no longer writing for yourself or to otherwise pressure-test your own ideas — the onlypurpose is to serve the reader. If readers choose to ignore you (perhaps forever!), you will have undermined yourself: instead of attracting readers you will be actively repelling them. So other judgement about its use aside, using an LLM will increasingly become simply… ineffective.” What if there are more people who don’t care than those that do?
