    I worked with one guy that would actually say “yes, you’re right, I was wrong about xyz, it should actually be abc”

    I think this is what I hate most about rampant LLMs unleashed on the general populace. That kinda phrasing used to just be “effective communication when owning a mistake.” But now, like the emdash — (lol), it’s abused into a cliche as telltale clanker-speak.

    It erodes trust that, whether right or wrong, you’re speaking to an authentic human being.

    My biggest peeve is their constant use of “That’s not (anything here), that’s positive thing.” Lol

      I actually did think about taking that out, because I agree, that should be effective communication and I say similar things myself. I don’t know how to explain it right now but the way that he said it was exactly like talking to AI, whereas the way I phrase it is more natural. I got two separate opinions on the matter with multiple examples from both myself and the AI bot guy lmfao, and they both agreed that I sounded like a person and the other guy sounded like a bot
