I fear for the future where every comment that has been composed with some thought will be branded as ChatGPT generated.

I know most of those suspicions will be correct if they aren't already, but I'm still not very happy about it.

It's not the amount of thought that brands it as something that could be mistaken for a chatgpt emission. Rather, chatgpt writing has a very formulaic style that is hard not to instantly recognize once you have seen it a few times.

It's not super surprising to me that people who use it frequently begin to unconsciously imitate the chatgpt style in their own writing after a time.

It makes my job at writer much easier. If I don't want to think about prose I can copy chat gpt and get 80% of the way there with very little effort. Most stuff I write is for my coworkers or Hacker News so I don't mind. When I write for fun or for my family I like to be more thoughtful.
