> It's hard to be right without sounding right.

This doesn't seem true in the age of LLMs, which are notorious for being confidently incorrect.

In fact, this whole article seems out of touch with the realities of where AI is going. In my opinion, good writing is dead. Or rather, good writing is commoditized. Good ideas are still very much alive, but if you have an idea and bad prose, iterating with an LLM will have a better end state than rereading your paragraph 50 times.

That said, if you're only writing to internalize your own ideas (journaling) then this makes more sense.

You're denying the antecedent.

PG: Right => Sounds right

Your comment: (Sounds right => Right) is false.

These are not in conflict.
