So "cringe" -- when a LinkedIn article imploring businesses to build "trust" turns out to be completely AI generated

The irony of this was not lost on me. It's frankly embarassing to see this.

It's obvious, once you know how to look.

Maybe you can relate. Maybe you're already feeling that disembodied feeling when you encounter vanilla smooth AI-generated content. It looks fine. It looks great. But doesn't actually really say anything.

Why? Because there's no distinction. There's no point of view.

It's all just very smooth and vanilla.

The AI detector tool told me:

This article has extremely high probabilities of being AI-generated, or at the very least, heavily assembled using AI templates. Abrasive people often use AI to polish their tone because they know their natural voice is too aggressive for marketing.

We live in strange times.

About the Podcast

All Things Human with Adele Wang
How power works, in people and in machines.
How power works, in people and in machines. Especially in this time of massive and hyper-rapid change.

Adele Wang watches how people behave, in organizations and in ordinary life, and says the part most people leave out.

Some episodes are about work. Who decides, who gets blamed, what happens when nobody quite owns a decision. Some are about relationships. Why you know your neighbor's dog's name and not theirs. What we want from each other and what we're willing to admit we want.

The through line is the same either way. What's really going on underneath the thing everyone agrees to say.
