No actual writer wants this shit. Please stop forcing it on us.
The new Google AI functionality in Docs is total mind-ruining shit. Hit enter in docs, it takes over your cursor to offer to help you write. Every. Time. You. Hit. Enter. Do you know how annoying that is when you are writing something? It's someone interrupting you every minute. MAKE IT STOP.

Gents, I'll ask you to check your TL, your syllabi, your work spaces, your reading choices and recommendations, who you boost - check all of that before the ritual, "Women are great, behold my allyship," self congratulatory post. If it's not 364, don't celebrate today.
