> I don't agree. Good writing and good ideas are entirely different things. Just read all the beautifully written, inaccurate stuff by the NYT or the Guardian.
replyI'd be very curious of some examples when great ideas are being presented in bad writing (or bad speaking for that matter).
> Also, non-native English speakers have to use LLMs to share their views so that they are not judged on their writing.
weird statement. If they use LLMs they will be then judged for both their inability to write in English and for their usage of AI. Not good.
One example that comes to mind is math textbooks – the early textbooks in a field are usually much worse than later ones that come along. To pick on one, I think most people who've read both would agree that the commutative algebra section of Lang's Algebra is much worse than Atiyah & McDonald's Commutative Algebra book, despite covering basically the same ideas, theorems, etc.
