Use AI to write things for you to read that you wish someone else had written. ‘Give me a summary of the research on this topic’; ‘Write a report on this data to help me make a decision’. ‘Take this transcript of a meeting and write me the email it could have been’.
Don’t use AI to write things that you are producing for someone else to consume.
I am someone else, if AI can write something that I want to and can consume then it can do the same for other’s consumption. Perhaps a disclaimer would be nice, “co-written with ____” but I see no difference between the two though of course I understand what you are trying to convey conceptually
this is where I perhaps differ from other commenters, I do not have higher tolerance, regardless of whether I asked it or am reading something someone else posted, fully or partially written by LLM.

Perhaps English is not your first language? To people who are well-read, LLM-ism grate on their nerves like the high-pressure sales pitch you hear on 3am shopping channels.
This isn’t English first/second language thing to me. I find LLM writing unbearable (even with humanizer skills and all the other bullshit, I can smell it from a mile away). What I was trying to convey is that, to me, there is no difference in reading “can you summarize this shit for me” vs. reading someone’s blog, LLM-written/assisted, that did the same thing and posted it publicly. If I like/tolerate the former (I don’t), I’d like/tolerate the latter

Elsewhere it’s painful and irksome when you didn’t ask for it
