There is something wrong with this position. Ask AI to explain it to you because I am too busy to do it myself.
thanks for the suggestion, I did: "You’re right that the means can change the message. People often value perceived effort and authenticity, so provenance matters. The evidence is mixed: AI drafts can be rated more empathetic than typical human responses, but when recipients discover a message was machine‑authored, the benefit can vanish unless it’s disclosed and human‑edited. So the app is designed for that reality: (1) hand‑written for people who prefer them; (2) AI‑assisted drafts that must be reviewed by the sender; and (3) clear, simple disclosure"
How did you feel when you read my response? That's how people who see through the BS will feel when they receive an AI generated note from your app.
