Let's delve into the peculiarities of this article— shall we? (/s)
A lot of people don't know what proper English looks like because they don't read enough books offline, and so chatbots, sounding grammatically correct or even passing a single customer service or human reading check are elevated to the status of "speaks proper English" by neophytes.
As a result, people who want to be seen as speaking _"completely proper English" _ will adopt certain habits of the chatbots (especially if they're from a different nation or speak a foreign language and don't understand the grammatical rules of English natively), e.g: Like the Nigerian Tech scams.
You also have the incompetent, like the UK politicians mentioned, converting "simple English to complex English" using an LLM dialect/formatting tool.
Shit, piss, motherfucker and cock. 👍🏼
Hello fellow em-dash enjoyer, there are dozens of us, literally dozens! But yeah, fuck AI.
I've never used them previously, but I am now because I want to take them back!
Just ignore the haters. We were first.
Read books, hope it corrects.
Fuck you, you're exactly right.
How are "books offline" more proper English than books online, exactly? They're the same books, no?
