I've been trying to organize my thoughts of how I feel about consuming AI generated content. This comment really encapsulates how I feel.

As long as a human put time and effort into making something, then I'm willing to consider putting my effort toward reading/watching. If someone just spends 5 seconds to throw a prompt out there, that's when I get annoyed.

Why? Do you care more about the origin than the quality?

Because they are linked. AI content can be generated so frivolously and at such volume you easily be overwhelmed by low quality garbage. Humans can also generate crap, but a much slower pace and I think that AI being so good at crap generation that it will push out any humans in the space that used to meek out any work here. So, what we are left with is AI content that is mostly low-effort crap, with maybe some rigorously reviewed bits that are good here and there, and the human-content which will mostly be people who care enough to make quality content otherwise they would be already posting AI schlock.

The end is that using AI as a proxy indicator for garbage will be right more than its wrong. So if I see something is AI generated, I should give it a pass and not waste my limited time resource on it.
