Writing used to be proof-of-thought...

This how I feel about genAI: it's informational poison. If you read or look at it without knowing it is AI, you have already lost.

The solution they proposed is exactly the one I adopted while working on the CRA standards: if you send me AI output, tell me it is AI output and any due diligence you did on it. Then I can make a decision about whether to engage.
