It's rude to show AI output to people | Alex Martsinovich - Reddthat

Lemmy

Just because the final output comes from AI doesn’t always mean a human didn’t put real effort into writing it. There’s a big difference between asking an LLM to write something from scratch, telling it exactly what to say, or just having it edit and polish what you already wrote.

A ton of my replies here - including this one - are technically “AI output,” but all the AI really did was take what I wrote, clean it up, and turn it into coherent text that’s easier for the reader to follow.

I don’t think the LLM made your response better in a meaningful way. Sure, it cleaned up the grammar a little bit, but the rephrasing in a few places is not necessary.

Trust yourself to communicate without help from external software.

making one dependent on external service is the very point of llm from the point of view of investors. Imagine how much money they will make if everyone just couldnt live without llm in every aspect of their life.
