I wholeheartedly agree. People should really continue writing in their own voice, at least at a time when you can still feel the difference.

The following sentences have ai-slop cadence

“The first render gave me something to react to.”

“Some requests were tiny[…] Others changed how a whole scene worked.”

I'll even read your post about working with Claude, the challenges you still needed to solve, the treadmill of 'we're just about there, we just need xyz'. Just write it yourself

It's a blog post. If it's not worth your time to write, it sure as hell isn't worth my time to read. Nobody's demanding this, nobody is reviewing your blog output for consistency...like what's the purpose?

Yes, understood. What I still appreciate about the AI-generated post though is that I didn't have to do all the chores: the interactive showcases that reuse the render code, organizing the dozens of videos for playback and so on. If I had just written down my excitement without the interactive part the agent turned it into, it would have missed the point, which is that you can also explore it yourself. That was the part of the post that mattered to me.
