I've started noticing the emails I get from readers via the contact form on my site are getting longer, and I have a sneaking suspicion it's because so many people are feeding their messages into ChatGPT or whatever before sending. Happily, they often still begin with "Dear Sir," "Kindly..." or "Greetings of the day." I really don't know who talks like that, or how this became so common, but it still cracks me up every time.
