Should we stop "correcting" AI writing so it improves English for us?


For example, AI writing often puts an "or" at the list of items because that is more logical in some contexts.

Changing it to "and" would make it sound more natural, but it would be less logical.

Keeping it as "or" may make it standard usage over time, even when people are not using AI to write.

What do you think? Should people stop "correcting" AI writing when it is actually more logical?

Although AI writes better than the average person in objective measures, the fact it is *everywhere* means its voice is instant cliché, and for good reason everyone learns to avoid cliché like the plague.
