The main reason I write is to generate new ideas and connect the dots. Every time I’ve written a blog post, the final product looked very different than what I initially had in mind. AI violates this - it encourages the writer to skip the ‘rumination’ step, in most cases.

Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.
