but sam said he was sorry in all lowercase so it must be okay

>>0x5f37+e1
Semi off-topic, but the trend of AI influencers adopting the all-lowercase communication style in professional conversation has been very annoying. It makes them appear completely unserious.

I recently received an job recruitment email for an AI role in all-lowercase and I was baffled how to interpret it.

I don’t think it’s only AI influencers that do this. I’ve noticed people use lowercase as some sort of power move. Like they’re so busy and important they don’t care about conventions.

It's certainly a modern status symbol that can be seen as a power move.

So common in academia! The student writes a detailed, error-checked, well-edited long email only to receive an answer like

'yes plaese

Sent from my iPhone'

Definitely a 'I'm very busy look at me' powermove

Actually they probably are that busy and aren’t trying to impress students, they’re trying to grade a bunch of exams while reviewing a paper while writing up research while writing a grant and also having a personal life.

And if they treat them all with this degree of attention, then they're probably failing at all of them.

The grant writing and (supervising the work of the people performing and writing up) the research funded by the grants that will also be the basis on which they will secure future grants get more attention, obviously.
