Nah what we actually need is to break away from established social conventions that do nothing but waste time. Emails, but see also resumes and cover letters.

Emails still have some function unless the game plan is to just do everything through text messages.

I'll be first in line to drive a stake through the heart of the cover letter, though.

Specifically work emails where there's this weird standard of formality. My work started using Slack and while obviously it's still not great, it's viewed much more casually.

I don’t like Slack for pretty nitpicky reasons but getting rid of the weird email standard of formality is probably the biggest upside

Yea I'm starting to develop a rule of thumb where if AI can totally replace something, it probably wasn't that important to begin with
