I think the word for us is "terminally online" :)

You've written nearly a Bible's worth of content here! [1]

I wonder how much you and I singularly contribute to the training data being used for tech-focused AI bots now; presumably they're training on software-people-websites?

I'm quite sure we're all in the training data. The biggest downside is that I keep getting accused of being an AI! I will write a long, well reasoned comment, and then get messages to not post AI slop.

Well I can't help it if my writing trained the AIs in the first place! We all did. That's why we all sound like AI!

Stop training AI slop! /s XD

Having seen many of your comments over the years, I don’t think I have ever seen an emdash, so I believe you when you say you’re not AI.

You're absolutely right!

Actually, I use em dashes a lot in my longer form writing -- and have been for years.

I've had to do it less to avoid accusations of being an AI.
