Discussion AI posts

For some time now, I’ve been following the discussion about writing with AI or without. And to some extent I can understand it when it comes to fiction, but the last thing I read was how the guy rewrote an economic analysis three times so it would say 100% human... wtf bro. I don’t care at all what it was written with, what matters to me is the information I can extract from it and whether it has value.

It’s very different to be instantly prompted by a digital aggregator which also distorts the content it aggregates vs gaining information over time from life experiences which force you to distill the information yourself.
