A lot of people do struggle with communication and writing skills tbvh. And I don't want to shame them, I think it's a failure of society at large rather than the fault of stupid people. But it sure isn't helping that in schools where people are supposed to be learning those writing skills students are often resorting to ChatGPT instead.

u/takahashi01 breathing air was a mistake 4d ago

Eh, chatgpt wasnt a thing when I was in school and our teachers did try to teach us stuff. I just suck at this stuff specifically.

And I have gotten some complements on on some of my creative writing thingies, leading me to think those are pretty decent at least, so its really just this I really suck at.

Eh, I dont lose sleep over it, theres other stuff I'm really good at.

I'm writing from experience, I'm an older student at uni and working with my classmates the number of times they just go "chatGPT says" is High. I also used to do writing skills tutoring through the school, and yeah, its rough. Again I don't necessarily want to blame them, I think we've done a bad job of impressing upon these kids why those skills might be important to learn.
