This is not the same. Because SO, google etc require actual research, introspection, prompting AI does not.

You're describing superficial behavior -- akin to taking the first match on Google or SO and saying that people are only doing that regarding AI prompts.

Good prompting _does_ require engagement and, for most cases, some research, just like SO or Google.

Sure, you can throw out idle or lazy queries. The results will be worse generally.
