Fascinating. I don't think you meant it this way, but it took me almost until the end to realize I had transposed the roles of human and ai. It made for a very interesting first read and second read.


They could be giving you a subtle hint to not send messages outside of work hours.


I don't know their working hours, we've got staff all over the globe and people work whatever hours they like. I have no expectation for anyone to check work communications outside of their working hours, and it's bonkers to me that people think anyone would have that expectation.


That's weird. When I am off, I don't read those messages anyway. Who would be checking at their messages AND be annoyed at receiving them?


This is a tough one in my opinion because the content of the article is valuable. Yes while reading it i noticed several AI tells. Almost like hearing a record scratch every other paragraph. But I was interested in the content so I kept reading mostly trying to ignore the "noise". The problem I fear is that with enough AI generated content around, I will become desensitized to that record scratching. Eventually between over-exposure, those who can't recognize the tells, people copying the writing they see..., we might have to accept what might become a prevalent new style of writing.

I don't find open spaces noisier than cubicles but I am able to easily block out distracting sounds.

I am interrupted, and when I am is generally somebody giving me a useful quick update or an informal greeting from an office buddy when they notice I make welcoming eye contact.

I don't think I ever felt a lack of privacy in the office or expected it in any way? I wonder what kind of privacy I would need that the restroom doesn't cover, I'm sure there are some instances since it's been called out.

That was fast! I missed it.


Thank you for introducing me to the Ventriloquist and Scarface. Absolutely bizarre characters. I love it.


I guess apparently the 2004 version did take after Tony Montana.
