I get this a lot too. I don't use ChatGPT or any LLMs in my work because I want my writing to sound like me, not like the averaged-out voice of the internet. But also, writing is thinking, and thinking is a habit. I don't want to get out of that habit.
A friend recently texted me the same thing. “Do you really not use ChatGPT?!” It was a sign of where we are culturally on this. People are compelled to use it but also starting to question the normalcy?
Recently met someone who was very surprised to hear I didn’t use ChatGPT or any LLM.
I said my job depended on doing distinctive work. That was my selling point. If I started to sound like ChatGPT and turn out what it did, then how on earth could I justify doing it? What would that make me?

Actually, it's not reasonable or acceptable. Super racist, though!

Outstanding episode. Also, the guys are absolutely correct: the Flan Man does have a fine singing voice. Check him out covering Jason Isbell's "Cover Me Up."
This week, a career Padre and then one of the best 3B coaches int he game...Tim Flannery! Flan Man was a utility guy for the 84 NL Champs and won 3 titles with the Giants as a coach. He now plays music and seems like the best dude.

Fellow Victorian novel freaks, gather close. Just finished this. Too incredible. If you’ve read The Curator and you liked it, you’ll love The Quincunx. It is nearly 800 pages of depraved 19th-century conspiracy, written with absolute commitment to the tone of novels from the period.

It's not news that Republicans will excuse literally anything Trump does, but it's pretty striking that, even a few months ago, "posting a video of him taking a shit on Americans" or "bulldozing the White House" would've just been comedic hyperbole about how far they'd be willing to go.

In a democracy based on freedom and the rule of law, we don’t jail public officials—or anyone—because of policy disagreements. We need everyone to repudiate this nonsense because a president cannot act as a prosecutor, judge, jury and dictator.
