> What is so insulting to me about those AI-written messages is that they take less time and consideration to produce than they do to consume. You are, by the nature of sharing these automated words, signaling to me that you care less about my time and attention than you do your own. Of course you’re free to believe that as much as you like—in your own head. Just don’t drop it into my inbox or feed. Because that’s rude.

Oh come off it! You seriously expect me to manually write out some formulaic letter, complete with all the required phatic flourishes, just to respect your time? Use a damn AI to summarize it. I'd you're actually plowing though that slop yourself, you have only yourself to blame.

> some formulaic letter, complete with all the required phatic flourishes

Why do you think that person reading your letter requires those phatic flourishes? Culturally I believe they serve as a form of proof-of-work: The effort is the point.

Written by an LLM, it becomes truluy valueless slop. Just don't generate the slop in the first place.

> I'd you're actually plowing though that slop yourself, you have only yourself to blame.

What a way to react to someone sincerely reading what you wrote them.

It should be required that any AI generated text comes with prompt that created it. So I don’t have to use AI to reverse engineer TLDR.
