I was doing this with work. Dot points were becoming paragraphs. Seemingly for others comfort. Yet, the dot points had all the information. So am I still preparing the paragraphs?

Maybe the change we need isn't AI assist, but a break in the conventions around communication at work so we can all be more robotic and terse.

I think you're discounting the benefit of a well-prepared argument. The order in which information is introduced prepares the reader's mind to be receptive to an argument. Phrasing is also important. Certain things sound natural; others sound needlessly verbose and cumbersome.

One interesting thing I've found about ChatGPT is that it removes a lot of unnecessary information from my final drafts. The information removed usually doesn't add to the overall point, and it reads so much better without it. In this way, ChatGPT is making things more terse.

I often pass my business communications through GPT to summarize the key points. The summary usually has all the important information, and I just send that instead.

Now if I could just learn to write that way in the first place, it would save me a lot of time and effort...
