Unveiling the Impact of AI in Writing: A Personal Reflection
In the evolving landscape of AI, one encounter has illuminated the subtle struggles of distinguishing human writing from AI-generated content. After analyzing a colleague’s recent Viva Engage post, I recognized several defining traits of AI authorship:
- Complex Terminology: Heavy jargon and convoluted sentences made comprehension challenging.
- Structural Oddities: Overuse of lists and em dashes, common in AI texts, further clouded clarity.
- Lack of Coherence: A missing “invisible hand” of the author left me disoriented, craving that human touch.
This experience has instilled a new vigilance in my reading habits. I now approach texts with an “AI early warning system,” aiming to discern quality in the online prose flood, regardless of the author’s identity.
As AI technology progresses, how will we redefine our standards for good writing?
