It's becoming a central tension of our time: people want to create with AI but don't want to be downstream of anyone else creating with it.

In case of lmgtfy the receiver was usually the lazy person. The question was usually so simple that simple that asking it for nth time on public forum was the waste of everyone's time. In case of pasting LLM response verbatim the responder is usually the one wasting everyone's time.

When making the site I briefly looked into creating a "Let me ask the LLM for you" kind of functionality :)

Turned out its kinda annoying to do, doesn't feel great and is fragile, so I dropped it.

Yep. That said I hesitate to paste AI verbatim. Instead I tell the AI to give me a good source for the information, make sure it's trustworthy, skim it myself then paste that. Like how everyone used Wikipedia when schools didn't allow it as a source.

Perhaps unpopular opinion but I wouldnt hold it against someone for giving an AI response to such inquiries. Dont waste people's time needlessly goes both ways.
