Only if we continue the trend with sans-serif fonts.
As someone who struggles with dyslexia, I'd love for serif to be the norm again.
I don't have anything like that (to my knowledge) but I've still just never understood how it became acceptable to have multiple letters look the same or very similar.
My money's on lack of foresight and stubborn resistance to change.
That's interesting to hear, my work developed what's supposed to be a very accessible font that is sans serif and I was curious if this actually helped dyslexic people. My one dyslexic friend actually said it is better for them, but people are all different.

"As an Al, I can only provide information I found scribbled on the walls of a public washroom. Or you can watch me Google awkwardly on my phone for a beat. Your choice."
Man if my name was Al, all of my emails would start with "As an Al,"
You can change your name today!

He wasn't very happy with me explaining that they are A.I.
Nicknames... In writing?
Aren't they more of a spoken word thing?
Weird AI
Al is here to put all artists out of business...
Some friend's kids came up to me the other day and asked if I knew the guy Weird A.I. who makes funny videos of songs on YouTube. It took me a little while to realise what was going on.
Al has been having thoughts in the shower again
Or they embrace it
