Amen.
These things do work that previously would have taken expensive engineers months to do, at much lower quality, and what's our response? Ti nit pick on it being more verbose than we'd like?
Just like with humans, when someone is being too verbose, there's a skill to just filter through the noise and focus on the important parts.
This feels no different when I use an AI.
But I guess it's a good sign that we've from complaining about 'AI slop code' to, 'I don't like how it speaks to me'.
