Yes, we talked about it, I explained to her what I was going to do, and she said she didn't mind. She doesn't work in tech, but we talk quite a lot about it, and she understands the implications.

Why do you assume I would do anything against my wife's will?

And I never said anything about "optimizing myself out of existence", this comment was still written by me and no LLM touched it.

But when writing comments on code or editing articles, reviews, and whatever long-form writing I give an LLM to review or edit, it's nice to know it'll keep my writing style, voice, and tone.

I'm already obligated to use LLMs at work, otherwise I might lose my job, so why wouldn't I want to have it write in a way I can actually understand?

Respectfully, that is how one talks about their pet or their kid but not their partner.

But this is not my beer, but by god this platform.

I don't see anything wrong at all with how OP approached this with their spouse.

What?

What I find amusing is that tech used to look outside itself for perspective. We did usability, ethnographic research was a big thing, I have taken paper prototypes (a long time ago) to the bar and chatted up strangers about them for a beer.

The fact that you're doing that with your wife, with her consent, is no different. The real value is in keeping you grounded by someone outside tech.
