The density argument is very interesting.

Does speed reading help you process the final message faster if it's written by AI compared to people?

Because if you read 1 information dense sentence, 1 medium dense, and 1 sparse sentece written by a human, it's still way less text in total than 6 information sparse sentences written by AI... even if it's all over the place when it comes to density or style.

The density argument is really interesting.

Does speed reading actually help you process the final message faster when it’s AI-generated compared to human-written?

For example, if a human writes 3 sentences—one information-dense, one medium-density, and one sparse—that’s still much less text overall than 6 relatively sparse sentences written by AI.

Even if the AI output varies a lot in information density and writing style, you still have to process all that additional text. So I’m wondering whether speed reading actually offsets the verbosity of AI-generated responses, or whether the total amount of text is still the bigger factor.
