honestly this “gotcha” style of thinking appropriated from too online liberals was bound to find its way into The Youths but I never thought it would be used to justify a form of mental self harm

I do wonder how much of “there is no voice” here that’s lost on people using AI. Also I’m sensing that as AI becomes more common my editorial work will become more about saying to folks something similar, like, “you didn’t write this, so I can’t edit this”
