I still use bullets extensively. You can easily tell when a human writes them when they are trees instead of lists.

I don't think even that is a reliable indicator because I'm currently reviewing an LLM generated bullet tree right now.

  • Oh interesting. Before the LLM craze, I only ever saw good bullet trees in legalese and git commit messages. The trainwrecks were far more likely to be the rare attempt by HR in a big email or in the odd Jira epic by a PM.

    I wouldn't think LLMs would have much to train on. I still see some bad ones, but I don't feel like the quality ratio or overall quantity has changed. I do see more bullet lists though.
