I often “oh, this is going to be an interesting article written by someone about how they use an LLM to do X” and then start and discover that the person wrote the article via prompting. I guess if you think LLMs are amazing and that you’ve gotten into a rhythm of offloading all the labour to them, you see writing your own posts as a waste of time. I just wish those posts came with disclaimers telling the reader that reading it is a waste of time too and the reader should just point an agent at it or whatever.

I start from the assumption that anything written coming from AI enthusiasts is also written by AI and skip it by default.

That reminds me of what you see in some Issues on AI-related GitHub repos. A 'conversation' where people are just pasting big walls of text with way too much formatting back and forth to each other.
