I actually think that this is a bigger problem than people using AI to write code. If all the code is written by AI (and it will be) then human-to-human communication is the way to build trust. Allowing AIs to poison that breaks everything. Honestly now I find it reassuring to see broken English, typos, lazy markdown formatting, grammatical errors and so on because it is so much better that I am talking to a real human. I think most people using LLMs to write comments literally don't understand this and often just need to be told. -- Oscar _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman3//lists/numpy-discussion.python.org Member address: [email protected]
