I remember reading a longer post on lemmy. The person was describing their slow realization that the political beliefs they were raised with were leading down a dark path. It was a process that took many years, and the story was full of little moments where cracks in his world view widened and the seed of doubt grew.
And someone who was bored/overwhelmed with having to read a post over three sentences long fed the story into AI to make a short summary. They then posted that summary as a "fixed your post, bro" moment. So basically all the humanity removed. Reminds me of that famous "If the Gettysburg Address were a PowerPoint" https://norvig.com/Gettysburg/
Sounds like an interesting read, got a link to said post?
That's really sad.
I've used AI to help clean up my sentence structure for copy, but if I am not super explicit with it to not rewrite what I wrote, it will do as you said and take the human element out of it.
