I had to write 40 individualized reports this weekend. I fed my notes into GPT, along with a few directions about style, and it spit out competent reports that mostly only required tweaking. It saved me from losing my Sunday too.

I see people saying things like this online, and I have to wonder what their standards for "good" or "competent" or whatever are. I'm not going to ask you to post those reports so I can "judge" them. You shouldn't and none of us cares that deeply anyway, but I'm still waiting for a good example of actual useful work done by these things. I'm replying to you randomly, there are other posts like this in this thread.

On the art front, every single piece of art that I see is bad. Not bad like a human not being able to draw, but bad in a different but still obvious (to me, at least) way.

On a personal front, I had a lot of fun generating funny pictures based on inside jokes with my friends a few weeks ago, but lately it barely makes us smile. I think the novelty is wearing off, so even that is gone.

Ultimately, it's not going to matter what I think, enough people think this is good content that it will be flooding the internet soon. It's all so tiresome.

Uncanny valley.

Automated stupid and poorly planned tasks will just ossify whatever system forced you to work a stupid and poorly planned task. All you are doing is making your future life harder.
