Sure,

Please refine: To be honest, I do use GenAI to help me format my comments including this one. I do, however put in substantial input outlining my thought in detail, so I use it more like a glorified grammar checker. It helps me a lot as I'm not a good writer (as being non-native, just sufficient to be able to thrive in business environment, just not a good writer. It helps me tremendously to get my thought across efficiently.

Perhaps I'm naive or old fashioned, but I prefer this unpolished version. You clearly have an unclosed parenthesis that's attached to a rough sentence, but two minutes of rephrasing will serve you well in improving both your writing and your speech. If you must use it, I'd suggest asking for suggestions rather than rewrites.

Writing is not just about syntax, but also about communicating who you are. This is your true voice.

Thank you—I understand where you're coming from. My interest in using GenAI stems from its ability to catch subtle implications or unintended double meanings in my writing. I've had plenty of "that's not what I meant" moments in the past, so using AI helps me align my phrasing with my true intent. It offers an objective lens, making it easier for me to convey my thoughts clearly, especially since I sometimes find it challenging to step out of my own subjective perspective.

Some roughness in my recent writing comes from being on mobile, which makes reviewing even harder! My writing has improved, though, even when I’m working without AI, likely from exposure to better writing flows. I’d say I used to rely more on edits (20% input to 80% edits), but now it’s closer to 75% input and 25% edits. Hopefully, I can refine it even further.

Fair enough. If you ever decide to do the proofreading yourself, you may find a prompt like this useful:

"Consider the following message. Distill the main thrust of the message, and list any implied statements made within. Be particularly sensitive to any negative connotations, and summarize the writer's feelings towards the reader:"
