AI distorts our conception of time & space. Everything is totalized yet summarized, immediately available yet degrees removed. Look up, look around—the answers may lie outside the engines.
I just read this article, and it was so beautiful.
Honestly, I can’t even remember the last time I slowed down and truly read something with such literary depth. It brought me back to my high school days, when I used to love reading literature just for the beauty of the words.
But over the past few years, especially since tools like ChatGPT became part of my daily life, I’ve fallen into the habit of skimming and summarizing everything. I’ve started to approach reading like a task—something to optimize, to extract key points from—as if everything had to lead to some kind of result.
That mindset, combined with how obsessed people are with efficiency and productivity these days, made me forget how nourishing a well-written piece can be.
English isn’t my first language, and even when I translated the article into Chinese, the writing still felt incredibly poetic. The emotion, the rhythm, the care behind each sentence—it really stayed with me.
So thank you. It’s been a long time since something I read made me feel so grounded.
I enjoyed reading it very much. The experimental style is super creative and original, not a form that can be copied by any AI, unless it has been fed to AI already. Even so, I bet AI will not be able to imitate it. Something ought to be done about AI stealing everybody’s content without consequences and destroying our copyright protection.

This was lovely. And depressing. And then lovely again.
