  • When writing what matters most is not LENGTH or even CONCISION but PRECISION, accuracy. Volume of words may not matter, but the longer something gets, the more likely it is to contain factual errors/inaccuracies. Chatbots are for people who cannot discern quality and quantity. Abundance without quality is trash.
