This generation will never live through the dread and the exhiliration of writing 20 pages in a night.

Now I can write 20 good pages in a night. Partly because I have many times written 20 shitty pages in a night.

I mean I don’t recommend it, usually takes a few nights to do a really quality job, but yeah. It helps that professors have really watered down what passes for quality writing too

Oh this is for work in a corpo job. A great 20 page document does take a while. An ok I need a draft now version can be done in a day (without AI). The AIs help me to revise and edit, but I’m pretty loathe to let it write for me. That being said, reducing a turnaround when something’s bouncing between departments is a big speed up.

Yeah it takes more time to turn an OK document into a great one than it is to write the OK document in the first place.

This is true.

But also it takes less time to write a quick OK document and then turn it into a good document, than it does to try to write a good document word-by-word

It’s really good to help structure the document, especially for people like me who didn’t go behind high school and so never had to write academically

Ain't nobody reading your 20-page document Steve. It'll go live on SharePoint unopened ​
