Microsoft chief scientist Jaime Teevan responds to being 'accused' of writing like AI: she does use AI — to support thinking, not replace it. In 'There Is No Prompt to Share' she publishes her full 50,331-word AI interaction behind a 353-word post, and shares her favorite prompt ('help me see and express the deeper concept I'm not getting across'). She argues AI's abundance breaks the old signal that polished writing implies thought — driving people to delete em-dashes and introduce errors — and frames AI as a new participant in socially distributed thinking, while she stays responsible for every word.
