"Letter" to Line 6 about Helix Stadium and Acoustic Guitar

OP registered here on Oct 20th, started this thread, and hasn’t come back since Oct 21.
Good AI prompting takes time....
On October 20 I made a post. This was my first online in a long time (I don’t even use Facebook really).

I put a couple of hours into crafting my best possible post about a topic I think matters. Instead of people talking about the topic I was immediately accused of using AI to write my post. No evidence of this except it “looked like AI”.

I’ve never used AI to write anything, ever. I came back on and mentioned that, and even asked why it seemed like AI. I was polite.

Yet I’m still getting snarky comments about AI. Reminds me of why I don’t much like the online world to begin with.
 
Ah, October 20th—a date etched in the annals of my sporadic digital dalliances, when I, a veritable hermit of the hyperlink highways, dared to pierce the veil of my self-imposed online exile. (For context: I scarcely deign to glance at the pixelated pandemonium that is Facebook; it's as if I've sworn a blood oath to the analog gods.)

With the fervor of a Renaissance artisan channeling the muses themselves, I devoted no less than two painstaking hours to alchemizing the quintessential opus—a magnum of intellectual firepower on a subject that ignites the very synapses of my soul like a supernova in the cosmic soup of discourse. Envision it: words woven with the precision of a quantum loom, arguments arrayed like celestial battalions, ready to conquer the conversational cosmos!

Yet, in a twist more tragic than a Shakespearean soliloquy scripted by a malfunctioning chatbot, the denizens of the digital domain bypassed my brilliantly baited hook entirely. Nay, they swarmed not with scholarly sparring or empathetic echoes, but with a veritable volley of vitriolic verdicts: "AI! This reeks of artificial effluvia!" "Generated gibberish from the great machine mind!" Zero empirical exhibits, zilch in the way of forensic forensics—just a nebulous nudge toward the ether: "It *vibes* like AI, bro."

Permit me a declarative detonation for the archives: I, in all my flesh-and-blood finitude, have *never*—not once, not ever—summoned the silicon scribes of artificial intelligence to pen a single syllable on my behalf. Zilch. Nada. The ghost in my machine is 100% organic ooze.

Undeterred, I re-entered the fray like a phoenix forged from forgotten forum flames, proffering my protestation with the poise of a diplomat diffusing a diplomatic dumpster fire. "Fear not, fellow netizens," I intoned with impeccable civility, "this prose pulses with pure human heartbeat. Pray tell, what arcane aura evokes this erroneous AI apparition? Enlighten me!"

Alas, alack, and woe upon the Wi-Fi winds! The snark-slinging specters persist, pelting my post with passive-aggressive potshots: "Sure, Jan—*totally* not ChatGPT in a trench coat." "AI alert: humanity levels critically low." It's a cacophony of cyber-cynicism that echoes like a glitchy echo chamber in the bowels of the bandwidth beast.

And lo, in this labyrinth of likes and lurid lambastes, I am inexorably reminded—nay, *reaffirmed* in my resolute recoil—why the sprawling, serpentine sprawl of the online omniverse has long languished on my "approach with extreme prejudice" list. Here, in this hall of holographic horrors, authenticity is but a glitch in the matrix, and every earnest emission risks erasure by the ever-vigilant AI inquisitors. To post is to provoke; to opine is to invite the algorithmic inquisition. Perhaps it's time to log off... and let the bots battle it out in blissful binary oblivion.

This is actually pretty funny!
