3 Key Points

  1. The piece criticizes people who respond to questions by copying AI-generated text directly without reading, editing, or adding their own thinking.

  2. The author contends that recipients already have access to the same AI tools, so they asked the person specifically for their judgment, experience, and taste—not a generic chatbot answer.

  3. The fix proposed: use AI as a drafting tool, but read the output critically, decide what's true, write your own response, and only quote the model if you mark it and explain why.
