I was on a forum that had one member who is very knowledable on the subject of the forum. But now he...only ever responds with "I asked gemini your question, here's the answer:", and it's a real shame. His online person has become totally hollowed out. (These aren't like newb question threads, these are conversational topic threads). I think he doesn't know or care how valuable his point of view was. -_- Some communi…

Seems a bit aggressive to send to someone. Let's spread love, not hate

It's a bit aggressive to send someone mindless AI chatspam. We should consider such behavior a direct affront. Wtf is with this excuse-making for abandoning the bare minimum of professional competency?

I agree with the sentiment, but this is not something I can send my colleagues.

You can be annoyed and right, and still avoid being crass.

I don't know what's worse: 1. Asking a question which could be answered by an AI 2. Pasting an AI response to something If 1 is fair game, I'd say 2 is too.

2 is far worse. Asking a question that can be answered by AI can also spark a good conversation. That's not bad at all.

100%. Just because you can plagiarize basic correspondence doesn't mean it's OK.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

2. Pasting disregards the reader

1. Often disregards the question's recipient. Particularly for questions that could be easily answered by AI.

People can just choose to ignore questions they don't feel like answering for whatever reason.
