I see many Youtubers who are certainly still writing their own scripts, but every once in a while you can tell they absolutely used a Claude correction in one place.
replyIMO, it's still better to not let an AI critique your writing style at all, only the facts and claims you're making against its context / MCPs. Your own writing style is a reflection of your mind's thought process and, especially on forums like this one, is the only way to imbue your ideas with your personality.
But what if your mind's thought process on a specific example (or in general…) is downright BAD? I still think AI text critique has its place when you're certain that's the case for whatever you've written. Above a certain quality threshold I'm with you on it.

replyThen maybe you shouldn't be making Youtube videos about it… ?
Potentially dumb question, but could you expand on how you use LLMs as writing critics? Do you just ask them to flag bad writing? I'm asking because I don't think i'm skilled in writing.

replyNow there's an idea. LLMs may have taken the em-dash from us, but the em-en dash is unknown to Strunk & White and might be human-exclusive for some time yet.
Technically, in latex (and what other format is there?) an en-dash is `--` and an em-dash is `---`. So that was just an em-dash. A `-` is a hyphen.
replyUs oldies learnt to type these with multiple dashes automatically, as unicode hadn't been invented yet.
This arms race leading, somewhat inevitably, to the development of the eminem-dash.
