I got a really strange reply on Bluesky, and I think it's worth quoting, because it's worth refuting:

> one of the biggest problems in human communication is that people (without assistance) say things they do not mean. it's one of the primary forms of miscommunication out there. AI assistants can, actually, help ensure people _do_ say what they mean, while also anticipating how others may take it.
