One eerie consequence of using programs like ChatGPT to generate language is that the text is grammatically perfect. A finished product. It turns out that lack of errors is a sign that AI, not a human, probably wrote the words, since even accomplished writers and editors make mistakes. What these programs exhibit, ultimately, is writing that is sterile, banal, and altogether conformist. It would seem inevitable that patterns of human thought would follow suit.
