This LLM era has really changed the world to the point of making us doubt our own human editing skills. If LLMs didn't exist, would there even be this level of skepticism toward our writing and formatting abilities?

We are now hitting a wild milestone in online communities where proper text formatting, perfect grammar, and proofread articles automatically get you flagged 🚩 as a bot.AI has taken over the Web. It can generate beautifully formatted content, but it can also produce the worst, most generic filler. Ironically, when a human uses critical thinking 🧠 and high-level formatting skills, the result now looks artificial. Human editing was here long before LLMs took over the world, and our self-editing skills never used to be a problem.

It feels like we are losing our collective human editing skills. Instead of refining our own ideas and thoughts, people are outsourcing original thought to LLMs. This leaves human-constructed clarity looking exactly like machine output.

Because general-purpose AI has made lazy typing so easy, authentic human proofreading skills are completely atrophying. Clean writing has ironically become the new red flag for automation.Are we conditioning ourselves to accept messy text as the only true sign of humanity, or have we just stopped proofreading entirely?
