Resigning in the age of LLMs.

2023: you type a polite resignation letter into your email client and click send.

2024: you type “polite resignation letter” into an LLM. Paste the output into your email client and click send.

2025: you type “resignation letter” into your email client. Click “polite”, click send. Recipient’s email client summaries the letter back to “polite resignation letter.”

2026: you type “polite resignation letter” into your email client. Click send. Your sentiment is sent directly without first being inflated by, or recompressed by an LLM. We simply communicate in prompts.

“Goodbye, jovial, dystopian.”

@mattcomi I think a one line Teams message is appropriate

@mattcomi

In your thoughts you plan out
"I'm writing to tender my resignation…" but only type "I'm " before remembering the new LLM functions.
You type "polite resignation letter", the LLM corrects it to
"Impolite resignation letter", and then summarises it to "🖕"
