This is an article written by an AI application mimicking the style of Colin Liddell. To be honest, it sounds more like a Daily Mail columnist. This suggests that AI isn't nearly as clever as some fear or hope. CL

In an era where our attention spans are reduced to the length of a TikTok video, we've witnessed a catastrophic decline in the art of discourse. Once, the exchange of ideas was a noble pursuit, conducted in the hallowed halls of academia or the spirited debates on street corners. Now, it's all about soundbites and emojis, a travesty to the very notion of intellectual exchange.
The internet was supposed to be the great equalizer, a place where knowledge could flourish like a digital Renaissance. Instead, we've got a digital dark age, where misinformation spreads faster than the plague, and echo chambers amplify the most absurd ideas until they seem like gospel.
Take the current obsession with AI. It's not just about the technology; it's about how we've lost the ability to engage critically with new developments. Instead of questioning, we're all too eager to jump on the bandwagon, to tweet our support without understanding the implications. It's not the AI that's the problem; it's our willingness to accept everything at face value, to be led by the nose by the latest trend.
And don't get me started on the language. Brevity has become the soul of witlessness. The richness of vocabulary, the nuance of language, all sacrificed on the altar of convenience. We're no longer storytellers; we're just storytweeters, reducing complex narratives to 280 characters of banality.
We need to reclaim the space for real discourse, for long-form thought, for the kind of conversations that don't just inform but transform. Until then, we're just shouting into the void, hoping our next post goes viral, not because it adds to the collective wisdom, but because it's loud enough to drown out the silence of our own intellectual decline.
