No. I have the same problem you do, which is harming my friendships and networking.
But I definitely am not going to reach for the solution you did. Because if anyone notices, it will effectively nuke that relationship from orbit.
Putting myself in the position of a friend who realized that you were using gpt or something to form thoughts...
I'd be impressed that you found that solution, and then I'd want to check be sure that the things you said were true.
Like, if I found out that 90% of your life as I knew it was just mistakes then computer made that you didn't bother to edit, I'd be bummed and betrayed, and it would turn out how you said.
On the other hand, if everything you sent is true to life and you formed the computer's responses into your personality, I'd be very much impressed that you used this novel tool to keep in contact and overcome the frozen state that had kept you from responding before.
@Usernameblankface that's a kind and generous interpretation, and I hope it's the one OP's friends will come to.
I suspect it's likely to be seen as an outsourcing of the friendship, though.
