Thanks. I checked the text using the gptzero service. It shows that 100% of the text was generated by AI. I removed the link from my article.

I checked out the other pages on his website. And his other articles. AI-generated content is absolutely everywhere.

Oh, I'm so tired of AI-generated texts.

Why do you think it wasn't written by a human?

The fact that I don't like phone calls and that I don't like talking to AI can certainly coexist in the same person without being manipulation.

New comment by theorchid in "I manage teams without a single call"

> Building a team to operate based on your own personal preferences is selfish leadership... or even dictatorship.

Is there really anything wrong with that? Most managers manage their teams the way they're used to. Founders build their startups the way they're used to—based on their own experience and mistakes. Founders and managers don't adapt to the team's needs. Instead, they look for a team that will adapt to them.

I agree. But we can call each other just to chat about things unrelated to work. Just to catch up.

Sorry, I forgot to add “I’ve never met a single person, except for managers and recruiters”.

It really depends on the people on the team. If they prefer to call each other and hear each other's voices, there's no need to push them to read emails. If you need people to read text, then you need a different kind of team. Every team simply needs its own management style.

> your job IS the meetings

> You’re responsible for a remit and the performance of people inside the group

Yes

One is not the cause of the other.

> As a manager, you should learn to change this about yourself rather than imposing your work style on your team.

I think we need a different approach here. I shouldn't have to change anything about myself, because we're slaves to our habits. I shouldn't force this on people who don't want to work this way. I just need to work with teams that are willing to work this way. And so far, I've always managed to find such teams and such people.

I think it depends on the person. For me, for example, text work best for any kind of question, no matter how complex. On the other hand, for simple questions, when I just want to chat, I'll opt for a call or meet in person.
