One hope with all the fear of being suspected for AI writing is that editors will leave the imperfections alone. And writers can get away with their unconventional, untypical, rule-breaking writing.

#FreshTake | At 10, I had cast myself as Brigitta, my brother as Liesl's beau, and Kerala's biggest stars as the leads for this iconic American musical. Decades later, the film remains a shared childhood love between my mother and me. Cris writes ✍️ indianexpress.com/article/fr…

One word to describe persons like us so concisely. You gotta like Japanese. But then otaku could read in Malayalam as alone. You'd like to think there is a connection. (Image from Ruth Ozeki's A Tale for the Time Being).

Modi govt blocked my Instagram account in India, on 28th September 2026, for a week. They blocked it again on 20th October 2026. This 'PROTEST FRAME' will remain till they stop FEARING political cartoons.

This is about writing in ai. Editing in ai needs another round of detection. Even your email app has begun suggesting splitting lines n simplifying. Just hope Editors don't fall for it n chop n kill a poor long line, trying to look good, whose only fault is it came from a human
The em dash vanished from machine text because it annoyed readers, and from human text because writers kept getting mistaken for bots. Now the detector punishes the human for writing like a machine and rewards the machine for writing like a human ↓
