This is my reasoning about trusting authors rather than judge the tools they used.

Agreed, and I don't care what tools someone uses. But if all they have to show is an AI generated README and pile of slop code with no sign of any human choices or curation, "don't judge the tools" doesn’t really apply.

It’s not “using a tool” when you farm out 99.999% of decisions to coin flips besides a random initial seed set by a few sentence prompt.

It’s like asking some guy “make me a project that does X” and then claiming you curated it and the other guy was just a tool.
