   Even as a dyslexic I can assure you I still manage to communicate just fine without using LLMs. It's literally ok. Nobody in good faith gives a fuck if something is spelled a bit wrong or with shit grammar, the message is still out there in it and if anything that makes it more human and personal anyway right?
   If anything encouraging people to use LLMs to "speak correctly" opens up a whole fucking ton of worms around structural racism, classism, ableism and "learnedness"

     I'm going to pivot to swearing less when I talk to appease the style guidelines of the US English hegemony and suck my entire soul out my arsehole to cosplay as a bourgeois intellectual book shitting machine with this one simple trick*

     @Shrigglepuss Exactly!

     I read a toot by a prof regularly meeting with a student over their thesis, it went from not that great English but making their points clearly to perfectly grammatically correct English talking nonsense. Yep, after the student started using an LLM to sound better.
