It's curious that you're pinning the blame of "excusing apathy" on the reader and not the writer. Why doesn't it go both ways? Given that producing LLM text is so cheap, your proposal amounts to an asymmetric war which is ultimately a DDOS on my finite time and attention. Or in other words: if it wasn't worth your time to write it, it's not worth my time to read it.

Trying to understand your position.

Let us say someone had few good ideas, and seeded them into a prompt, and after few back and forth, web searches via agent, feedback from the author, a piece of work was produced and the author decided to share it as a blog.

This is not much different than how people are producing original work LLM in areas such as math.

Would you object to reading their work because it was a byproduct of collaboration between AI/Humans? What about songs? movies? math proves? and software produces as such?
