AI;DR: Embrace Human Touch in AI Writing

I’m SUPER jealous that I didn’t think of this first… Hat tip to seclilc for tweeting this gem two days ago. The post reflects a growing grumble about AI writing that hits even me hard—physically flinching and màn eye twitch when I receive unfiltered AI output.

In Q3 2026, AI isবর্তন part of many processes, but I’ve adopted a new policy: if the text hasn’t been reviewed or edited, I won’t bother reading it. 100% AI‑generated copy is acceptable in some contexts, like customer support, but not in a Slack discussion or a colleague’s newsletter.

The same rule applies to social content: if you’re attaching your name to AI‑sprinkled prose, are you proud of it? If not, I’ll ask Claude directly.

TL;DR—short for “too long; didn’t read”—is great for social media, while AI;DR is the solution for AI slop. Embrace this policy and seek out those who value a human touch when communicating.
