Sander Dieleman, Research Scientist (Director) at Google DeepMind, explains why every word on his blog is handwritten. Asking people to read something you didn't write yourself feels disrespectful to him, so he keeps AI out of the writing. He still uses models, though, to test a turn of phrase, find the right metaphor, or work through dense research papers while he learns. In this clip, Sander covers: • Why publishing AI-written text feels disrespectful to readers • How he checks phrasing and metaphors with a model • How he used Gemini to question papers while writing his post on flow maps • Where he draws the line between AI as a writing tool and AI as the writer
