AI Email Writing Debate

Hopefully you're specifying that your email is written with ChatGPT so other parties can paste it back into ChatGPT and get bullet points back instead of wasting their time reading the slop.

I wrote short emails. Am I doing it wrong?

If they can't handle an email, what makes you think they can handle a prompt, which requires more, not less careful calibration?

Legitimately asking: Do you have any evidence that this achieves certain goals better than how this email was phrased? Are you sure those goals are the same as those of the author of this email?

Email is absolutely fine. Just learn to write succinctly.

Have you considered studying how you communicate? There was something on HN recently titled How to write emails like a CEO (or similar).I studied my old CEO's communication style, holding it up against how many of my peers communicated. I noticed that he got right to the point, expecting other people to assume he considered multiple ancillary points. My (lower status) peers' emails would meander, and read like they wanted to show their superiors how good/smart they were at t

Well, it's human nature to try and efficiently summarize. You may have to adjust your communication methods to account for that. For example, I almost always try to write emails that contain one central point.

They say that it's 10% what you say, and 90% how you say it.That said, if what you have to say is worth 10x more than the mean, then you can say it however you want...I also use https://hemingwayapp.com/ for the _really_ important emails ;)

For me it's better written communication.

what are people even worried about here? they're just trying things to see whether they're useful. don't expand your emails into long prose if it adds no value for you and they will focus on other things.
