Great video, thanks!

15:35 - "the main thing that pisses me off" Uff. Felt that. Whenever one of my coworkers sends me some AI mountain of slop. First off, I can't trust what this says. Second, IDAGF what the AI thinks. I asked for YOUR thoughts.

Also, I forgot about anchoring bias when working with AI slop. Very good to call it out.

    Ironic that she refers to an article by a substack blogger who discloses in their blog that it's written by AI. She then thanks her on two occasions for giving her advice on her script.

    discloses in their blog that it’s written by AI

    Can you link to this? I tried looking, but I couldn't find it.

    Thanks. For what it's worth, I'm in the AI skeptic camp, but I can see how AI voice transcripts, and AI drafting/organization is different from "written by AI".

    Did you actually watch the video? She has a whole chapter addressing exactly this.

    Yup, I watched the video. Which chapter are you referring to?

    I don't particularly care to get into an argument about this, but don't you agree that voice transcripts and organization of those transcripts is not equivalent to writing an entire blog post with AI?
