If I ask you a question, I want a useful answer. I don’t care whether you got there by remembering it, Googling it, reading documentation, asking a colleague, or asking an LLM.
Obviously, blindly pasting 2,000 words of irrelevant AI slop is annoying. But that’s a problem with bad answers, not with AI.
The particularly stupid part is suggesting that you should take a perfectly good AI-generated answer and rewrite it in your own words. What exactly has been achieved then? The information is identical, except somebody wasted five minutes manually paraphrasing it so the recipient can feel sufficiently exposed to human keystrokes.
Use AI. Give it the relevant context. Verify important claims. Remove irrelevant garbage. Send the useful answer.
Judge communication by its accuracy, relevance and usefulness—not by how inefficiently somebody produced it.
I was/am. ChatGPT wasn’t. But that’s the joke. It is ironic to post an LLM generated answer to a post explaining that LLM generated answers are stupid.
This is such a bizarre take on AI.

This doesn’t seem sarcastic.

I think this is too many levels of irony for lemmy lol
