The effect compounds as we encounter op-eds, white papers, ad copy, erotica, propaganda etc with a crazy diversity of subjects and rhetorical purposes all spoken by the same poorly-defined implied narrator. We learn to recognize the subliminally unmoored feeling it gives us. It’s not about em-dashes

Yes yes yes yes This is also part of what I love so much about animation as an art form, by its very nature it requires an intense thoughtfulness and intention behind every single detail The fact of intentionality is actually a part of the art, it's a different piece if you take that away

I’ve been thinking a lot about the thoughtlessness of AI writing. One of the many things that makes Melville’s prose so dazzling is the EXTEME rigor of the way he surprises, deepens and extends his metaphors and cultural touchstones. AI simply can’t, and not for the same reason that most of us can’t
