As more people start using AI for research, they'll probably adopt AI'isms in their writing too, even if they don't use AI itself to do the writing.

Subconsciously we all pick up patterns that we regularly encounter.

This is the load-bearing result

I've definitely picked up 'lever', I scrub it every time that I notice I write it but it's in there.

I have the opposite, I can pick up AIsms much more now and they stick out like a sore thumb. A couple of years ago I had no such intuition, it just sounded like normal writing to me, but now if I try to use AI to write any prose it just sounds absolutely terrible.

I've had that happen to me. I actually recently wrote a draft blog and looked over it, and it felt AI generated. My writing style has definitely changed.

Maybe we need our AI to only respond in bullet point lists.

This distinction is important.
