Before the next galaxy brain shows us all how smart and witty they are by adding the nth sarcastic comment about how obvious this result is, I hope they'll take a moment to consider a few things.

Yes, people are using LLMs for this kid of thing. Lots of people. All the time. I've met plenty of them and there loads of apps that offer this kind of "service". The authors are well aware that people are doing this and probably anticipated the result.

Why do the study at all? Because it's important to demonstrate and measure things, even obvious ones. Because it's not obvious to everyone, like the people who are already consulting LLMs for dietary information to manage their health. Because it's easier to enact official policies when there's hard evidence.

Bizarre thread so far. Some threads seem to attract a certain type of boosterism or opinion management. People all rush in to same similar things, without reading the prior comments. Seems designed to wash thoughts into a stream. Maybe coordinated pr or reputation management. It could even be organic but it doesn't seem that way.
