I consider myself a “genuine communicator” insofar as I write messages thoughtfully and thoroughly.

Though I suspect many of my emails go unread, and people have confessed that they ran my personal messages to them through an LLM to generate something for them to report up in some spreadsheet etc tool.

Or in the case of some managers for whom the critical technical detail goes over their head, they just re-ask their questions in a call and try to get to “is it done yet” and “how many engineers can I add to make it go faster”.

I think I might be on the chopping block if a move was made to get rid of overly-thorough verbose communicators, genuine or not

But it sounds like you might be filling your emails with actual facts, rather than the sort of fluff that an LLM could do for you.
