I don't think the article author is claiming that we should have no compression, that all compression is bad. But compression culture can reach absurd levels, for example in the opening sentence of the article where the author receives requests to summarize a novel. The whole point of a novel is to be experienced. Nobody has time to deeply learn everything, but that shouldn't become an excuse to be lazy and refuse to deeply learn anything, just because it's possible to ask anything of ChatGPT.
