Our readingWhat is a korrent?

The value of a piece of writing depends on whether the reader finds it good, not on how much effort the writer put into it.

Drawn from what Jacob Falkovich said

What these subjects mean

taste Whether good and bad exist in made things, and how a maker comes to tell them apart.

writing Prose as thinking: writing well, writing by hand while a model offers to do it, and who will still be able to.

Why does writing matter, now that a model can write for you?under our view: Machine-written text is good enough, or soon will be, and most readers will not mind

What Jacob Falkovich actually said

  1. Jacob Falkovich Writer of the blog Putanumonit and the newsletter Second Person
    Ultimately, the only thing that matters is if you think the writing is good, not how much effort I put into it.
