I find it interesting that you request me to discuss subject matter when your post is intellectually equivalent to: "I generated this sequence of numbers using my pseudo-random number generator"

I find it interesting you still continue with personal attacks without saying nothing of substance. What is wrong factually in the post? Why are you convinced I'm an AI? I also find it interesting that you've just been hostile throughout this entire interaction and still have nothing to add to the actual discussion. Stop the slop.

Sure, cheers then. I don't care about negative responses if they're negative just because they think it's AI-generated, without having to say anything substantial on the actual comment or the article. I have demonstrated my willingness to engage in good faith but those comments have not. If negative responses have no substance behind it, it makes no sense to care about them or take them seriously. Also, the fact that…

> the fact that you assume it takes more time reading that comment than it took for me to write is pretty weird I didn't do that either! I had no idea whether you just fired off a quick prompt and pasted the result without even reading it, or spent ages crafting and rereading and revising it, or (most likely) something in between those extremes. I said generated comments can take less time to create than to read, and…

I stand by the comment in its entirety. If formatting is an issue that makes it unreadable for you (to not even get to the substance), I can't help you. I do not care about "getting through" to anyone, I'm a human interacting on a human forum and I responded to the content of the article which was mostly BS about creating AI slop (on top of being a content marketing piece trying to sell people shit using deceptive claims).

But I will defend myself when I'm told obtuse things without any substance backing it.

I'm obviously just annoying you, which really wasn't my goal, so I'll stop here. But I want to note that if you think this all comes down to "formatting", you're still not hearing what I'm trying to say.

Alright, here I go.

I don't think you are AI. I merely lament the fact that you found it appropriate to post a clearly LLM generated comment.

The problem with LLM generated comments for me is not their content, but rather their nature. I am not addressing the "actual discussion", as in my personal opinion, there is no "discussion" to be had. The post constitutes an automated response akin to an answering machine (be it much more sophisticated), and I generally do not find discussions with answering machines interesting at all.

That sounds like a you problem. Since you're not interested in discussing anything or finding this to be an actual discussion, I'll stop trying to engage you in good faith anymore, sorry.
