Ai content is why nobody trusts founders anymore

Strong claim, hear me out.

Every founder update reads the same now. "excited to share," emoji bullets, fake vulnerability about the rollercoaster. doesn't matter if it's real or not, it all sounds identical.

Noticed this hard while hiring. read every dm myself for a growth role. most were obviously ai-generated, same tone, zero thought put in. the ones that stood out were rough, specific, clearly written by someone who actually looked at the problem first.

Think the same thing's eating founder credibility. people used to trust a post because it sounded like someone actually figured something out.

Now half of linkedin sounds like the same prompt wearing different names, so nobody believes the "authentic journey" post anymore, they just scroll past it as content.

Not anti-ai, use it daily. just think we've optimized founder voice into something nobody actually trusts and most people haven't clocked it yet.

Curious if that's just me being cynical from too many dms this week or if others feel it too.
