I used to spend way too much time trying to get my stuff sound right in English, be it Slack or emails… I’m not a native speaker and I work in international team where English is used daily.

Now one of my favorite (and boring) uses of Claude is helping me say what I **already** wanted to say. It takes me minutes (vs half an hour or more before) with a couple of iterations, sans fancy words, em dashes and some other AI tells.

First it felt a bit weird, like cheating, but now it doesn’t anymore. Why? I’ve seen people write less because they’re not confident in their English. Or switch to their own language, which can leave others out. This is bad if you need everyone in the loop and talking to each other.

So when I see something dismissed because “it was written with AI,” I think we’re missing what AI can enable, maybe it simply helps someone join the conversation?

Do you judge something differently once you know AI helped write it, even if the mesaage/thoughts belong to the author?
