""I don't write in a casual way but a much more serious, precise way. And I've paid the price for living in a ChatGPT society.""
""Once I start writing, I can't really stop. Like a chatbot, he goes long. He adds paragraph breaks for posts on Reddit and peppers in research, even when the subject is mundane.""
""Growing up, I had a strong obsession with writing. I was always given good grades in English, but now, with the massive uptick in AI-generated text, all the time I spent happily working to improve my prose strikes me as a liability.""
""There's a new entity among us, and it's getting better at disguising itself - but it is becoming 'almost too human to be credible.'""
Jared Hewitt's writing has been mistaken for AI-generated text, particularly by a co-worker who publicly criticized him. Hewitt, who has a stutter, finds typing allows him to express himself fluently. His writing style is detailed and structured, often including extensive research. Despite his passion for writing and past academic success, the rise of AI-generated content has made him feel that his efforts to improve his prose are now seen as a liability. The increasing sophistication of AI text generation contributes to a sense of paranoia about authenticity in writing.
