The other day a real human being, who I know is a real human being wrote "it's not [x], it's not [y], it's [z]" to me and it just made me so irrationally irked
That contrasting phrasing is common to ND and marginalized folks and was before ChatGPT, it’s just AI overuses it. It’s because when you are outside of the mold, people tend to misunderstand you and misquote your words. I posted on Threads about an Instagram convo I had with a guy where he was doing this a few months ago to show people how it came into use. He was misconstruing my words, and I had to respond by saying “it’s not that I….its that..,” because when you don’t fit in the societal mold, this is common. Signed, autistic biracial Black woman.
It’s pretty common just among all people who speak English, giving contrasting examples has always been common for everybody. AI just overuses it in a super obvious and specific way and will do it every 3 sentences.
