> I just care whether or not the ideas are good and clear

That's the thing. It actually really matters whether the ideas presented are coming from a coworker, or the ideas are coming from LLM.

I've seem way too many scenarios where I'm asking a coworker, if we should do X or Y, and all I get is a useless wall of spewed text, with a complete disregard to the project and circumstances on hand. I need YOUR input, from YOUR head right now. If I could ask Copilot I'd do that myself, thanks.

If they answer your question with irrelevant context, then that's the problem, not that it was AI
