I would like it if software everywhere would stop asking me if I’d like to use A.I. to read and write for me. This morning my phone offered to summarize a friend’s text (no thank you, I prefer my friend’s voice, and I have time for my friends!) and other software has offered to compose emails and replies for me.

This is like offering to exercise for me.

There are many things I am happy to have machines do on my behalf. Writing is not one of them.
