If things right now are hard to tell, it will be easier in the future to tell looking back. So, in the future lets say 2030 we can look back at the things people write in 2026 and that they swear are "my own words" and that fool almost all of us and see clearly that they were not actually their own words after all.

It's going to be like when we all used cat meme pictures in our slide decks - in the future it's going to be obvious and cringe and a liability now.

It's like postponing a major credibility and trust failure event to yourself by a few years in the future for some feel good attention now.
