    "Those rethinks are load-bearing parts of your voice."

    Loved the (possibly not deliberately ironic) use of the LLM'S favourite analogy, load-bearing.

    Nice wee article though. I particularly agree with "Don’t take all of the model’s copyediting advice." I've been using LLMs to review teaching material and often it just doesn't get the point of teaching. It's good for prompting reflection on your writing but it's still an idiot savant.

      There's no way in hell that wasn't a deliberate joke.
