    Don’t waste your time.

    I hope these hyperbolic takes can be over, forever.

        &gt; As if using AI to write is a bad thing.

        It is, it&#x27;s disrespectful of the reader. Like others have said time and again across HN: why should I spend my time reading an article the &quot;author&quot; couldn&#x27;t even spend their own time writing?

        &gt; Not to mention the fact that you seem to be unaware of the fact that it&#x27;s theoretically impossible to discern human writing from LLM writing unless there is an explicit signature in the writing.

        Huh? No it&#x27;s not lol

          The same reasons you might spend your cycles running code the &quot;author&quot; couldn&#x27;t even spend their own time writing.

            Because with code the reviewer most likely believes you are putting more effort into writing code with an AI than you did handwriting it. If you don’t then your coworkers most likely already hate reviewing your agents crap.
