Writing is an art, and some enjoy producing or consuming verbose prose. I hope AI doesn't change this.

Personally, I don't appreciate verbosity while reading blog or news articles.

However, I don't think its bullshit. If a author is sharing, they likely are doing so in a manner that they find enjoyable.

The way I see it, you don't need to read communications like this if you don't enjoy it. Much of what gets said repeats what has been said elsewhere.



- Correct re. writing as art - but context here is stuff like work e-mails.

- Such e-mails are in many ways similar to a comment thread like this -> my reply is a valid example of my point.

- I wrote the comment the way I actually think about this topic. Would it be better if expanded to full-blown prose?

- Alas, this doesn't fly at work (and rarely on Internet).
