I wonder if consciously avoiding the style and patterns frequently applied by generative AI might be triggering some kind of forced language evolution. Previously considered best practices that are now shunned to not sound like a machine.

I’d like to think that I have a really good grasp of English, but I still have to look up the definitions of ‘alternate’ vs. ‘alternative’ to know which one to correctly use.

I built a #bot that posts 10 new German words once per day: @…
The bot uses a few RSS feeds of German news media to look for new words.
'New' means that they're not on a list of approx. 39 million old words and have not yet been discovered by the bot itself. More info in the bot's bio. ... and please feel free to ask me anything.
