[ExI] People are starting to write and speak like CHATGPT.

You sound like ChatGPT / AI isn’t just impacting how we write — it’s
changing how we speak and interact with others. And there’s only more
to come.

Quote:
Join any Zoom call, walk into any lecture hall, or watch any YouTube
video, and listen carefully. Past the content and inside the
linguistic patterns, you’ll find the creeping uniformity of AI voice.
But it’s not just that we’re adopting AI language — it’s about how
we’re starting to sound. Even though current studies mostly focus on
vocabulary, researchers suspect that AI influence is starting to show
up in tone, too — in the form of longer, more structured speech and
muted emotional expression.

So AI is not only taking over our thinking; it is teaching us to talk
like AI as well.
I've noticed that people have started apologising in emails for using
CHATGPT to "improve" their writing.
Sometimes justified by not being a native English speaker.
AI is so useful for the younger generation that AI English will
rapidly become the new standard vocabulary.
