>In fact it is kind of stupid to insist someone slavishly draw something by hand that could have been done an easier way.

Communicating low effort used to be insulting to the consumer, yet now I'm expected to praise it? I understand that we're not talking about monetary exchange, but we're still talking about my finite time in this world, time that I could've been invest reading or looking at something else.

So we're going back to my favorite adage these days: If you cannot spend time writing it, I refuse to spend time reading it.

In fact, the moment I realize someone's content is AI generated, I just feed the links (youtube -> transcript, blog posts -> link) to chatGPT and have it generate a summary. That's because if you're in favor of using your time efficiently then so am I.
