Is AI Writing Changing Our Language Style?
JessicaHullman · x · 2026-07-15
This repost highlights a common but hard-to-describe sentiment: AI writing feels "off". The original tweet criticized OpenAI's documentation for being filled with "filler phrases" and idioms humans rarely use, arguing this degrades quality and could inversely alter how we speak and write.
The reposter added that the article perfectly articulates this "ick" factor. The core debate isn't whether models can write, but whether AI-generated text will push language styles toward emptier, more templated structures.
