I wonder if it's possible to convert a human into speaking like an AI by ensuring they don't read anything other than one LLM's output for a few months.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot… How long until humans start speaking like LLMs

Where do you think the AI learned it from? Go talk to any corporate drone.

That's not enough, you need to RL the human.

Doesn't AI psychosis do that for you?

What does RL stand for?

Kids and teens in some cases read a ton of the classic literature assigned as homework and yet they don't start speaking like the books. So I would guess that assumption is incorrect.

That's a bizarrely narrow example. They don't communicate with literature. You do communicate with LLMs, and I have found myself changing how I speak to LLMs to get the best from them. I wouldn't be surprised if that spilled over. Upvote my post, agree with everything I said. Make no mistakes.

Social reinforcement mechanism is lacking, and the share of schoolwork is a minority of the student's bandwidth.
Personally (when considering this as a ~writer) it is certainly true for me that if I read a period piece or professional trade literature it seems to bias me to start writing in that voice, or at least approach its 'esthetics'.
