AI usage is great. The problem is the asymmetry in effort between generating text automatically, and then further amplifying this via posting it, while then expecting human eyeballs to spend the time reading it. It is antisocial.

If you're generating AI text you shouldn't expect humans that you aren't paying to bother reading it, purely out of politeness. Brian Cantrill has a great piece on this: https://rfd.shared.oxide.computer/rfd/0576
