I already think that it’s insulting when people accomplish/do/implement/… something and want to informs the others and do that by generating a 1-2 pages long wall of text via LLM that is then copy-pasted into an email…

Like… Can’t you just write down the 5 or 10 most important points? Are we not worth the time to do so? Do we have to find the most relevant information ourselves in that text???

It’s more about post/message size for me. If ya post a few sentences that clearly and concisely communicate a point, I don’t really care if they’re crafted or generated. If ya post a wall of text, I wanna know ya put the kind of effort in that made its length necessary if I’m gonna put in the effort to read it.

what if it was my boss who said that during a technical argument? :/

True story

Something that some coworkers have started doing that is even more rude in my opinion, as a new social etiquette, is AI summarizing my own writing in response to me, or just outright copypasting my question to gpt and then pasting it back to me

Not even “I asked chatgpt and it said”, they just dump it in the chat @ me

Sometimes I’ll write up a 2~3 paragraph thought on something.

And then I’ll get a ping 15min later and go take a look at what someone responded with annnd… it starts with “Here’s a quick summary of what (pixxelkick) said! <AI slop that misquotes me and just gets it wrong>”

I find this horribly rude tbh, because:

1. If I wanted to be AI summarized, I would do that myself damnit
2. You just clogged up the chat with garbage
3. like 70% of the time it misquotes me or gets my points wrong, which muddies the convo
4. It’s just kind of… dismissive? Like instead of just fucking read what I wrote (and I consider myself pretty good at conveying a point), they pump it through the automatic enshittifier without my permission/consent, and dump it straight into the chat as if this is now the talking point instead of my own post 1 comment up

I have had to very gently respond each time a person does this at work and state that I am perfectly able to AI summarize myself well on my own, and while I appreciate their attempt its… just coming across as wasting everyones time.

@lemmydividebyzero This happened to me at work. They are really pushing Copilot on us.

Uh huh. And at the same time, I’m frequently told “it’s the deception that we hate! Don’t claim you did something if an AI actually did it!”
