This Twitter-style faux-casual way of writing is so common among AI people right now (see Sam Altman) and it’s extremely grating. I don’t know anything about this project, but if they really cared about their users, I would hope that they’d use capital letters and punctuation when addressing them in an official announcement.
Also:
> "and honestly? i..."
> "this is not just content moderation - it is a..."
These are two huge shibboleths of gpt-ese. He had to specifically tell the bot to write in that style.
That kind of posturing is forgivable when you’re a teen. When you do it as the CEO of one of the most influential companies today, it’s grating. When you do it because you’re another CEO in a similar market and you’re trying to signal that you’re part of the “in” crowd, it’s frankly embarrassing.
eg the past decade has seen us remove “that” as a qualifier, and the word literally has become interchangeable with figuratively.
its worth considering whether you’re just losing touch…
The latter didn’t happen just in the last decade, and the former hasn’t happened at all.
But no, I can pretty confidently say that the English language still has capitalization and punctuation in it, it’s mostly just on Twitter and in AI-related blog posts where people write like this.
