What was the value-add of AI here? Some modicum of undeserved politeness instead of the curt bullet points you prompted with? Or an intentional “fuck you” by sending something sloppy with AI tells?

Your use of the phrase “undeserved politeness” suggests to me that maybe you aren't someone I should look to for advice on how to behave.

[eloisius]

That's probably true, but to be clear, I'm not communicating my own values here. I'm trying to understand your rationale.

Yet they deserve inauthentic politeness from a chatbot? It just sounds like "fuck you" with more steps.

[mjd]

Not from the chatbot. From me. I'm the one who sent the message.

And it wasn't inauthentic. I wanted to be polite and inoffensive, but I didn't know how.

It definitely reads as a 'fuck you' to me. Is there a group of people that responds well to that last sentence?

[mjd]

Perhaps I'm wrong, but yes, I believe there is. Your own personal preferences are not universal.
