A poll on your attitude towards using AI in serious writing i.e beyond mindless formal emails. How OK are you with using AI to write at least some bits of your articles/paper intros/any other writing that requires some level of craft?

The ECI's increasingly diminished reputation lends a soft credence to Rahul Gandhi’s claims, i.e. that they are not all implausible, and that is precisely why the evidence needs to be available to all electors right away rootprivileges.net/2025/08/02/tim…
