Is your wife truly on board with you feeding all of your private conversations into a cloud so that you can optimize yourself out of existence?

Yes, we talked about it, I explained to her what I was going to do, and she said she didn't mind. She doesn't work in tech, but we talk quite a lot about it, and she understands the implications.

Why do you assume I would do anything against my wife's will?

And I never said anything about "optimizing myself out of existence", this comment was still written by me and no LLM touched it.

But when writing comments on code or editing articles, reviews, and whatever long-form writing I give an LLM to review or edit, it's nice to know it'll keep my writing style, voice, and tone.

I'm already obligated to use LLMs at work, otherwise I might lose my job, so why wouldn't I want to have it write in a way I can actually understand?

Eh, eventually we'll be feeding our consciousness into the cloud. What then?
