It absolutely is destructive. I read an opinion the other day about Microsoft shoving Copilot into every product, and it kinda makes sense. Paraphrasing but: In MS's ideal world, worker 1 drafts a few bullet points and asks Copilot to expand it into a multi-paragraph email. Worker 2 asks Copilot to summarize the email back into bullet points, then acts on it. What's the point? Well, both workers are paying for Copilot licenses, so MS has already won. And management at the firm is happy because "we're using AI, we're so modern." But did it actually help, with anything, at all? Never mind the amount of wasted energy and resources blasting LLM-generated content (that no human will ever read) back and forth.
