If You are Asking for Human Attention, Demonstrate Human Effort | Tom Bedor's Blog

An ever-increasing volume of debug investigations, document writing, and code is written by robots. This has created a new etiquette question when working with a team - when is it OK to forward the output of an AI to another human to read?
