At times, it seems like the only thing that has changed is that the dinguses don't bother crediting ChatGPT.

Tell that to linkedin group. they keep doing that, they dont credit it, but i assume at least 60% of other people can tell.

To be fair, linkedin has always been filled to the brim with unhinged slop, even before AI was a thing.

That is what Show HN has become. Nobody cares what code Claude shat in response to a random person prompt. If I cared, I would be prompting Claude myself.

My manager at work still does this in work chats and it drives me a bit crazy. If I want to k own what an LLMs take on the subject is I can just go ask it.
The chat is for people to discuss people stuff.
It's a bit parallel to that thing we had in 2023 where dinguses went into every thread and proudly announced what ChatGPT had to say about the subject. Consensus eventually become that this was annoying and unhelpful.
