Analogy: it’s fine to write stories for yourself mad libs style with AI

It’s not ok to write stories with AI and post them for others to read claiming “I did that”

Get the difference?

Something like 90% of food in all US restaurants is from Sysco, US Foods, or similar.

Some of them purchase ingredients from those companies, and then make the food using those ingredients.

A great deal of restaurants, though, simply purchase pre-made frozen foods from those distributors, re-heat, and sell it to you at a premium without disclosing while you think it was freshly made. Mac & cheese, stuffed peppers, lasagna, burritos, most 'bar snacks' you can think of, etc.

Yes, I like the phrase "you can't expect someone to put the time and effort in to read/etc what you didn't put the time or effort in to write/etc".

yes yes definitely, restaurants should not be microwaving food for paying customers (ok if some components are) but like... not serve a completely microwaved dish

happened to me once lol, will never forget that place ever again (blech)
