AI Could Kill Our Vocabulary

AI could be the best thing to happen to language—or its undoing. Ever noticed how AI-generated content feels… samey? That’s not your imagination.

Language isn't just how we communicate.

It's how we think!

If we’re not careful, AI might just steal your brain.

The Mechanics of AI-Generated Language

AI language models like ChatGPT, Copilot, Bard, are trained on mountains of human text. They mimic patterns, predict words, and optimise for engagement.

But AI doesn’t just borrow from the internet. It feeds it.

Very quickly, online content is becoming a cesspool of regurgitated AI generated mediocrity with limited editing an zero original thought. The more AI churns out, the more it reinforces the same phrases and ideas. A linguistic echo chamber.

Sweet.

AI sticks to safe zones. Common phrases. Predictable idioms.

Quirky, regional, creative language? Left behind. And that’s tragic. Language should be alive. Messy. Full of surprises.

It doesn’t stop there. Professional and academic writing isn’t immune. As industries lean on AI for reports and proposals, originality erodes. Slowly. A world of documents sounding like the same polite robot. Bland and homogenized.

No loss for legal contracts, but it will make many jobs much more boring.
