> anti-AI people think the advice and information you can get from a good model (if you know how to operate it well) is less valuable than the advice and information you can get from a book

Those people exist and they’re wrong.

More frequently, however, I find I’m judging the model less than its user. If I get an email that smells of AI, I ignore it. That’s partly because I have the luxury to do so. It’s largely because engaging has commonly proven fruitless.

You see a similar effect on HN. Plenty of people use AI to think through problems. But the comments that quote it directly are almost always trash.
