It is distracting you because part of your mental focus is on "is this AI".

I love how quickly all AI pushback gets blown off as "skill issue". Even reading and taste now!

All writing is open to interpretation by the reader.

Some people let punctuation or grammar mistakes ruin an entire text or post for them, because they choose to focus on those flaws, rather than looking past them and taking in the content itself.

"this was written/assisted by AI" is starting to feel like next-gen "this has spelling/grammar mistakes in it, therefore it is invalid".

I think the problem is that too many people use AI to write bullshit. Thus AI writing becomes a cue for bullshit.

For people who have internalized AI writing as a cue for bullshit, it is very difficult to read obvious AI writing without constantly being cue-ed that the thing they're reading is bullshit. Even if it's not.

Its only distracts the distractable. Does anyone ever read product announcement blog posts like they were great literature? Ive always just skimmed, theyve always been throwaway writing to me. I’d rather the humans spend more time on the actual creative challenges in a project.

tldr; continue to cede ground on the slippery slope.

did i get that right?

yep, and when the llms can pack flatware, stamp license plates or clean bedpans, I'll argue we shouldn't have humans doing that bullshit work either.
